Zach Ertz, the Washington Commanders tight end, is listed on the injury report but has no game injury designation for Week 9's matchup against the Seattle Seahawks on November 2, 2025, at 8:20 p.m. ET. Ertz has been productive this season with 27 receptions for 245 yards and four touchdowns over eight games. In the previous game, he caught four targets for 16 yards, marking a decline after a two-game streak with a touchdown. The upcoming game against the Seahawks presents a favorable matchup, as Seattle's defense has struggled against tight ends, allowing the eighth-most receiving yards and the fourth-most schedule-adjusted fantasy points to the position. Fantasy football analysts recommend starting Ertz in Week 9, especially in PPR leagues, citing Seattle's weak coverage against tight ends. Ertz's season stats indicate he remains a relevant target for the Commanders, particularly in the red zone, with three red zone targets and two touchdowns in his last five games. The game is crucial for Washington as they aim to improve from a three-game losing streak and secure a playoff spot. Other notable players and fantasy advice include Hunter Henry, Dalton Kincaid, and Zach Charbonnet, with specific start/sit recommendations based on matchups and recent performance.
