How Zach Ertz Caught Chip Kelly’s Eye

Chip Kelly’s Oregon squad was two games away from an undefeated season.

The No. 2 Ducks were hosting No. 13 Stanford in a prime-time game on Nov. 17.

With 6:28 left in the fourth quarter, the Cardinal’s offense took over at its own 22 yard line, trailing 14-7. Zach Ertz had been giving Oregon’s defense problems all game. And on this particular drive, the Ducks just had no answer for the 6-5 tight end. Ertz caught four balls for 53 yards, including the game-tying 10-yard touchdown with 1:35 left.

The play was originally ruled incomplete, but the officials changed their minds and gave Ertz the score.

A Lane Johnson Eating Story From His Step-Dad

James EvansEverything about James Evans’ appearance speaks to where he is from.

Evans is Lane Johnson’s step-dad, and he’s a rancher in a small East Texas town called Groveton.

During his first trip to Philadelphia, he brought his hometown with him, sporting a cowboy hat and a big belt buckle to complement his handle-bar mustache and Texas drawl. You get the sense he’s the kind of guy who has spent hundreds of hours entertaining friends, family members and strangers with stories from his past.
