The Arizona Cardinals are placing TE Zach Ertz on injured reserve Tuesday with a quad strain, according to Miek Garafolo.
Ertz will miss at least the next four games of the regular season while on injured reserve before he can be activated.
Ertz, 32, is a former second-round pick of the Eagles back in 2013. He was traded to the Cardinals during the 2021 season for CB Tay Gowan and a 2022 fifth-round pick.
Ertz played out the final year of his six-year, $43.64 million contract that included $20 million guaranteed and a base salary of $8.25 million for the 2021 season.
He was in line to be an unrestricted free agent when he agreed to a three-year, $31.65 million contract with $17.5 million guaranteed last year with the Cardinals.
In 2023, Ertz has appeared in seven games and caught 27 passes for 187 yards receiving and a touchdown.
