With Stowers likely a year away from possibly contributing and not much else in the TE room as far as pass catching threats, Ertz could very well end up here for the duration of the season.
September 21Sep 21 Goedert hurt…..again. TE room sucks so bad that Ertz has to come back. Yay.😃 Next year’s draft……we need like 45 O-linemen, 18 TEs, and 6 WRs. 🦅🏄🦮
September 21Sep 21 Even if this was mostly fan service, I’m a fan of this fan service. Let’s get this man that record.
September 21Sep 21 Why didn't they do this in August once they knew Stowers was on bust alert? They had to have known Goedert had no shot of playing all 17.

They had to have known Goedert had no shot of playing all 17.One reason (I believe) not to is if he's on the roster for week 1, his 2026 salary is guaranteed. If he's signed after week 1, he's week to week. I think that's how that goes.

The TE room, the QB room, the WR room, all butt-arse. I didn’t even mention the S room or the O Line room.

They had to have known Goedert had no shot of playing all 17.Basically it was for cap purposes. If he was on the roster week 1, the contract is fully guaranteed. Signing him after that, the contract is capped if released. Teams do it frequently with vested veterans.
September 22Sep 22 Awesome to have Ertz back! He was pretty damn good in Washington last year. Coming off the knee at his age is tough, but I think he can still contribute as a security blanket for Hurts in the passing game

September 22Sep 22 Author I do wonder where he is at with his recovery from the ACL tear he suffered just 9 months ago. I have a feeling those expecting to see him in Chicago next Monday are going to be disappointed ... guessing he isn't ready yet. If that is the case it makes perfect sense to add him to the practice squad to give him time to ramp up and finish his recovery rather than taking up a roster spot that could be used for someone who could potentially contribute in some capacity now.

If he's ready medically, they will probably make him active and draw up a few basic plays for him to get acclimated.
September 22Sep 22 Can't lie, I have much faith about him being a nice pickup and put up respectable numbers. So much faith that I can even see him staying next year (if Goedert doesn't get another 1 year deal) to [continue] babysit Stowers in every single aspect of the game.
