Week 3 Positional Value: volume-based TE2 with low-end TE1 upside

Despite the Arizona Cardinals' heartbreaking 31-28 loss to the New York Giants, veteran tight end Zach Ertz turned in a solid performance.

Fantasy Impact

The 32-year-old was targeted eight times, hauling in six of those for a total of 56 yards. While he didn't find the end zone, Ertz's consistent involvement in the Cardinals' passing game is a promising sign for fantasy managers. His 12 receptions on 18 targets for the season place him as the TE8 in the league, and his weekly ranking of TE10 shows he's still a reliable option. Ertz's play-by-play data reveals a mix of short and medium gains, demonstrating his versatility on the field. Looking ahead to Week 3, Ertz and the Cardinals will face off against the Dallas Cowboys, providing another opportunity for the seasoned tight end to rack up fantasy points.
