What Are Zach Ertz's Best Fantasy Seasons?
The table below ranks every Zach Ertz season on the record by total fantasy points. His peak came in a four-year stretch with the Philadelphia Eagles from 2016 through 2019, and the list then carries through his later seasons with the Arizona Cardinals and Washington Commanders.
| Rank | Player | Team | Games | Points | Points Per Game | Best Week | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | 1 | Zach Ertz | Philadelphia Eagles | 16 | 280 | 18 | 40 | | 2 | Zach Ertz | Philadelphia Eagles | 16 | 214 | 13 | 30 | | 3 | Zach Ertz | Philadelphia Eagles | 16 | 202 | 13 | 26 | | 4 | Zach Ertz | Philadelphia Eagles | 16 | 184 | 11 | 39 | | 5 | Zach Ertz | Arizona Cardinals, Philadelphia Eagles | 17 | 181 | 11 | 29 | | 6 | Zach Ertz | Washington Commanders | 17 | 173 | 10 | 25 | | 7 | Zach Ertz | Washington Commanders | 13 | 124 | 10 | 21 | | 8 | Zach Ertz | Arizona Cardinals | 12 | 112 | 9 | 17 |
How Far Ahead Was the 2018 Season?
The gap at the top is the defining feature of this record. Zach Ertz's 2018 season with the Philadelphia Eagles produced 280 fantasy points, while his next best year, 2019, sits at 214. The per-game column sharpens the picture: 18 points per game in 2018 against 13 in both 2019 and 2017. His best single week of 40 in 2018 is also the largest on the entire list.
That 40-point week nearly matches the best week from his 2022 season with the Arizona Cardinals, which was 17. It also stands above the best weeks recorded in his Washington Commanders years, which reached 25 in 2024 and 21 in 2025.
Which Seasons Form the Second Tier?
The 2019 and 2017 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles form a clear second tier. Both spanned 16 games, both averaged 13 points per game, and their totals of 214 and 202 sit close together. The 2016 season follows at 184 points and 11 per game, though its best week of 39 was larger than anything from 2017 or 2019 and nearly as large as the 40 from 2018.
The 2021 season appears in the table with two teams listed, the Philadelphia Eagles and the Arizona Cardinals, reflecting a year he spent with both clubs. He played 17 games, scored 181 points, and posted a best week of 29.
What Do the Commanders Years Show?
The Washington Commanders seasons of 2024 and 2025 rank sixth and seventh. The 2024 season covered 17 games and produced 173 points at 10 per game with a best week of 25. In 2025 he appeared in 13 games, scored 124 points, also averaged 10 per game, and topped out at 21 in a single week. Matching per-game averages across those two years show his weekly production held steady even as the total changed with games played.
The final row belongs to 2022 with the Arizona Cardinals: 12 games, 112 points, 9 points per game, and a best week of 17. It is the only season on the record that averaged fewer than 10 per game.
How Should Fantasy Managers Read This Record?
For fantasy purposes, this record is a story of one dominant peak and a long, steady decline in totals rather than a sudden collapse. The Philadelphia Eagles years from 2016 through 2019 occupy the top four spots, and no later season passed 184 points. Still, the 2024 and 2025 Washington Commanders seasons both averaged 10 points per game, which kept him inside the top ten tight end seasons on this list.
The verdict for anyone assessing Zach Ertz's career in fantasy terms: 2018 is the season to point to, and nothing else on the record comes close to it.
