Zach Ertz Confirms He Will Not Retire After Commanders' NFC Championship Loss

The 34-year-old tight end expressed his desire to continue playing, citing a rejuvenated season and strong chemistry with quarterback Jayden Daniels.

Zach Ertz, 34, announced he is not retiring after completing his 13th NFL season with the Washington Commanders.
Ertz had a bounce-back year, playing all 17 regular-season games, recording 654 receiving yards and seven touchdowns, his second-highest career total.
The veteran tight end highlighted his strong connection with rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, describing their partnership as 'just scratching the surface.'
Ertz, who signed a one-year deal with Washington for the 2024 season, will enter free agency in March, leaving his future team uncertain.
The Commanders reached the NFC Championship for the first time since 1991 but suffered a decisive 55-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Ertz's former team.
