Zach Ertz Expected to Miss Multiple Weeks With Knee Injury, per Report

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz is expected to miss multiple weeks with a knee injury, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Arizona Cardinals have battled the injury bug all season long. 

They're 4-6 after a 27-17 win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, but they didn't escape totally clean. 

On their first drive of the game, tight end Zach Ertz went down with an apparent knee injury. He walked under his own power to the blue medical tent but needed a cart to get to the locker room. 

We didn't see him for the rest of the game, as rookie Trey McBride filled in his spot, catching one pass for seven yards. 

After the victory, we spoke with head coach Kliff Kingsbury who said he did not have any updates at that time. 

However, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Ertz is set to miss multiple weeks with the knee injury, although the exact damage is unspecified. 

The ACL still being intact is important, but it appears Ertz is still set to miss some crucial weeks for the Cardinals in a stretch of time where losses will bury them further in their hopes for the postseason. McBride and Stephen Anderson will now see more playing time as a result of the injury.

More information is expected on Monday, but the early signs don't look good for Ertz's immediate future.
