The Eagles have given veteran tight end Zach Ertz and his representation permission to seek a trade, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

The Eagles have been discussing Ertz with other teams for multiple weeks now, so this is hardly breaking news. However, this could indicate that the end is near, and by allowing Ertz and his agent to seek out a deal and potentially negotiate a contract extension with a new team, the Eagles are hoping to receive fair compensation. Ertz had a down year in 2020, but so did pretty much every member of the Philadelphia offense. He is still just 30 years old and is only two seasons removed from getting the NFL record for receptions in a season by a tight end with 116.
