Zach Ertz

Imagine a super-strong player on a football team. That's Zach Ertz! He's a 'tight end,' which means he's really good at catching the football and running with it. He's played for big teams like the Philadelphia Eagles and helped them win a super important game called the Super Bowl! He's like a superhero on the field, making amazing catches that wow everyone watching.

Zach Ertz didn't just wake up being a great football player. He started by playing for his college team, the Stanford Cardinal. He was so good that everyone noticed! Then, he got picked to play in the big leagues, the NFL, for the Philadelphia Eagles. He played with them for a super long time, nine whole years! That's longer than you've been in school!

Did you know Zach Ertz is so good at catching that he holds a special record? He caught more passes in one season than any other tight end ever! That's like being the best at catching a ball in your whole school, but for all the grown-ups who play football. He's also been chosen for special games called the Pro Bowl three times because he's that awesome!

Guess what? Zach Ertz's wife, Julie, is also a super athlete! She used to play soccer for the United States national team. That means she was one of the best soccer players in the whole country! It's pretty cool when a whole family loves sports and is really good at them. They probably have lots of fun talking about games at home.
