Zach Ertz highlighted the journey many players experience, stating, 'We all have a story, right? We've all been either doubted or whatever it is. ... They're almost scars, per se.' His words speak to the resilience needed in professional sports.
Reflecting on his career, Ertz mentioned, 'Earlier in my career I would get worked up over how many yards, how many catches, how many targets. But now there's so much you can't control as a receiver.' This emphasizes the shift in mindset that has enabled his recent success.
Ertz's impact extends beyond the field; he has been instrumental in transforming Washington's team culture, which featured over 60% newcomers this season, providing leadership and experience to those up-and-coming players.
Having bounced back from injuries, Ertz has become a key player for the Commanders, with a strong performance this season, marking his first time starting every game since 2018.
