Stanford tight end Zach Ertz will be sidelined 2 to 3 weeks with what's being described as a lower leg injury. Ertz apparently suffered the injury on the opening kickoff of Saturday's game against USC.
Losing Ertz doesn't necessarily hurt the Cardinal from a passing game standpoint, but it does have some impact on the running game, which likes to go with three tight ends a lot. Ertz said in a Twitter response that he got rolled up on and that injury wasn't too bad.
