Zach Ertz is 11 catches from setting Eagles' franchise record

Zach Ertz returns to Philadelphia needing 11 receptions to pass Harold Carmichael as the Eagles’ all-time leader

Zach Ertz, the Super Bowl-winning wide receiver for the Philadelphia Eagles, is poised to make history by potentially surpassing the franchise record for receptions set by Harold Carmichael. After Dallas Goedert suffered an injury, Ertz was signed to the team's practice squad, providing him with an opportunity to contribute and secure his place in Eagles history.

With only 11 more receptions needed, Ertz is just 10 catches away from tying Carmichael's record and just 11 catches away from becoming the all-time leader. Ertz has already established himself as a key player in Philadelphia, holding the single-season receptions record and ranking fifth in franchise history for receiving yards.

His return to the team has been welcomed, as he continues to be a valuable asset and a significant contributor to the Eagles' success.
