Dallas Cowboys Tried to Sign Super Bowl LII Hero Now a Free Agent – But He Boldly Said No
Zach Ertz – the man who helped deliver the Philadelphia Eagles their first-ever Super Bowl title – is currently a free agent after a short stint with the Detroit Lions. And as always, former Eagles stars tend to draw interest around the league.

According to sources close to the situation, the Dallas Cowboys made a move to sign Ertz, hoping his veteran presence could boost their tight end depth behind Jake Ferguson. But in a surprising turn, Ertz declined the offer – despite the financial incentives.
“I once wore midnight green and reached the highest of highs with this city. I can’t imagine suiting up on the other side of an Eagles-Cowboys game. Some things are bigger than football – and to me, loyalty can’t be bought,” a close friend reportedly quoted Ertz as saying.
Ertz is still training, staying in shape, and hoping for one final ride in Philly, the city that became his second home. While the Eagles currently have Dallas Goedert and some promising young talent, a short-term deal to bring Ertz back as a mentor and emotional leader could make sense for both sides.

At 33, Ertz knows time is running out. But for everything he’s given this city – especially that game-winning touchdown in Super Bowl LII – Philly might just owe him one last dance.
He didn’t turn down the Cowboys out of hate… He did it because he still loves Philly more.
