Sinnott (illness) was listed as a full practice participant on Thursday's injury report. Sinnott was limited in Wednesday's session due to an illness, but he appears to be over the issue as he was able to log a full practice Thursday. The rookie second-round pick has logged three catches for 18 yards and a touchdown over his last five outings, though he has failed to see a target across the Commanders' last two games.
Sinnott (illness) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. The rookie tight end from Kansas State has yet to miss a game this season, catching all three of his targets for 18 yards and one touchdown while playing 195 offensive snaps. He's expected to suit up for the Commanders' divisional matchup against the Cowboys in Week 12 unless he downgrades to a DNP either Thursday or Friday.
Sinnott was not targetted during Thursday's 26-18 loss to the Eagles. Sinnott's six snaps on offense Thursday was his lowest of the regular season, and he has failed to see a target in three of his last four games. He appears destined for that kind of workload while working as the Commanders' No. 3 tight end behind Zach Ertz and John Bates.
Sinnott was not targeted during Washington's 18-15 win over the Bears on Sunday. Sinnott played just 22 percent of offensive snaps during Sunday's win over Chicago, with John Bates (33 percent) working as the No. 2 man behind top tight end Zach Ertz (75 percent). The rookie second-round pick continues to battle with Bates for weekly opportunities behind Ertz, and he figures to lack a clear path to fantasy upside until such time as he can earn a chance at the starting gig himself. Sinnott secured both of his targets for six yards and a score Week 7 versus Carolina, but he's been held without a catch in seven out of eight appearances on the year.
Sinnott caught both of his targets for six yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-7 win over the Panthers. Sinnott played 45 percent of the Commanders' offensive snaps Sunday, his highest snap share of his young career. The rookie tight end caught his first career touchdown in the third quarter of the contest from backup quarterback Marcus Mariota, as starter Jayden Daniels was sidelined with a rib injury. As the year progresses, Sinnott should continue to develop and see some increased usage in the Commanders' passing attack. The 22-year-old still remains the No. 2 tight end option behind veteran Zach Ertz, but an injury to the latter could force Sinnott into the spotlight at some point this season. Sinnott should remain off the fantasy radar for now, but his performance is worth monitoring in a Week 8 matchup against the Bears.
Sinnott failed to draw a target while playing 11 of 59 snaps on offense in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Ravens. The rookie second-round pick out of Kansas State is still looking for the first reception of his career while the Commanders continue to lean heavily on Zach Ertz and John Bates as their top two tight ends. Sinnott has been active for each of the first six games but has yet to play more than half of the snaps on offense in any contest.
Sinnott failed to record a single target in Monday's 38-33 win over the Bengals. Despite not being targeted in the contest, Sinnott saw his snap percentage increase to 42 percent in Week 3 after averaging a 21 percent snap share in the first two weeks. The rookie tight end continues to play behind both Zach Ertz and John Bates, limiting his opportunities in the Commanders' offense. Sinnott should continue to develop going forward, but he remains off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 4 matchup against the Cardinals.
Sinnott failed to record a single target in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Giants. Through two weeks, Sinnott has seen the field for just 26 offensive snaps and has not been targeted in the passing game in either contest. The rookie tight end continues to play behind veterans Zach Ertz and John Bates, and he'll likely find it difficult to see consistent playing time in Washington's offense in the early part of the 2024 campaign. Sinnott will look to continue his development in a limited role when the Commanders visit the Bengals in Week 3.
Sinnott wasn't targeted in Sunday's 37-20 loss at Tampa Bay, playing only 23 percent of snaps on offense. Zach Ertz ran 21 routes to Sinnott's four and tied for the team lead with four targets. That won't necessarily hold up all year, but Ertz figures to again lead the Washington tight ends in snaps, routes and targets in a Week 2 matchup with the Giants. Sinnott, a second-round pick, likely will have to settle for incremental role increases during the early part of his rookie season.
