During Saturday’s NFC divisional round win over the Lions, Detroit defensive end Josh Paschal was flagged for unnecessary roughness after he went up high on a hit to Daniels’ helmet. The Commanders quarterback was fine despite the penalty, but Ertz immediately came to the rookie’s defense.

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz was limited in practice this week, but he is not listed on the team’s final injury report and expected to play on Sund

Ertz has been taken out of the game and is being evaluated with a concussion. He is officially questionable to return. Ertz has already made his presence felt in the game, as he caught a pass near the endzone in the first quarter that led to the Commanders securing a much-needed first down. The catch then led to Washington scoring a touchdown.
