Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz is as tough as they come. Ertz suffered broken ribs and a lacerated kidney but returned to the same game. Ertz missed the next game because he was medically prohibited from playing but made an extremely quick return for the playoffs. Normally, a lacerated kidney leads to a month off and Ertz missed only one game. Going forward into the strange 2020 season, there are no kidney (or rib) worries for the productive tight end. He finished last year with 88 receptions for 916 yards and six touchdowns. The Stanford Cardinal alum will continue to be a featured part of the Eagles offense moving forward.
