Free agent TE Zach Ertz cleared for football activities

Free agent tight end Zach Ertz said in April that he didn't want his torn ACL to be the final act of his NFL career. He still is seeking an opportunity to make that wish come true.

Doctors have cleared Ertz for all football activities, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. That should clear the way for Ertz to find a new team. rouesnews.click

He is working out at Stanford with his former college quarterback, Andrew Luck.

Ertz, 35, tore the ACL in his right knee in a Dec. 7 game against the Vikings while playing for the Commanders.

The Athletic: VM-byer mener de mangler millionutbetalinger

De amerikanske byene som arrangerte kamper under fotball-VM i sommer, skal ha millioner av kroner utestående hos Det internasjonale fotballforbundet.
Ifølge The Athletic ble arrangørbyene lovet én million dollar (9,5 millioner kroner) som skulle gå til vekst av fotballen i lokalsamfunnene. Det skjedde etter at Fifa i 2025 hadde lignende utbetalinger til byene som hadde kamper i klubb-VM.
The Athletic har snakket med fire ulike ledere i de amerikanske VM-byene, som etterlyser pengene nå som de ulike VM-komiteene i byene skal løses opp etter turneringen. Samtidig skal rapporter om økonomien leveres inn.
De elleve arrangørbyene i årets VM var Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, Atlanta, Philadelphia, New York/New Jersey, Miami og Boston.
Fifa ønsker ikke å kommentere The Athletics opplysninger.
Allerede er Fifa-president Gianni Infantino i hardt vær som følge av planen om å selge deler av VM-produktet til eksterne investorer. Planene ble kastet sist helg etter stor motstand.
Infantino skal ifølge flere medier ha innkalt til hastemøte onsdag.
