sprite changes z position without any input to do so

im making a 2d platformer and i have a patrolling enemy but for some reason he changes z position even though i didn’t say to and it makes his z position behind the camera so he doesn’t render

heres the code

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;

public class EnemyPatrol : MonoBehaviour {

    public float speed;
    public float distance;

    private bool movingRight = true;

    public Transform groundDetection;


    void Update()
    {
        transform.Translate(Vector2.right * speed * Time.deltaTime);

        RaycastHit2D groundInfo = Physics2D.Raycast(groundDetection.position, Vector2.down, distance);
        if (groundInfo.collider == false)
        {
            if (movingRight == true)
            {
                transform.eulerAngles = new Vector3(0, -180, 0);
                movingRight = false;
            }else
            {
                transform.eulerAngles = new Vector3(0, 0, 0);
                movingRight = true;
            }
        }

    }
}

try this

using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class EnemyPatrol : MonoBehaviour {
 
     public float speed;
     public float distance;
 
     private bool movingRight = true;
 
     public Transform groundDetection;
 
 
     void Update()
     {
         transform.position = new Vector3(transform.position.x+ speed *Time.deltaTime,
transform.position.y,transform.position.z);
);
 
         RaycastHit2D groundInfo = Physics2D.Raycast(groundDetection.position, Vector2.down, distance);
         if (groundInfo.collider == false)
         {
             if (movingRight == true)
             {
                 transform.eulerAngles = new Vector3(0, -180, 0);
                 movingRight = false;
             }else
             {
                 transform.eulerAngles = new Vector3(0, 0, 0);
                 movingRight = true;
             }
         }
 
     }
 }
