Sinnott (shoulder) does not carry an injury designation into Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the Lions. Sinnott injured his shoulder during the Commanders' NFC wild-card win over the Buccaneers this past Sunday. He was limited in practice all week, but he has done enough to avoid an injury tag heading into Saturday's contest. Sinnott will serve as Washington's No. 3 tight end behind Zach Ertz (ribs) and John Bates.
Sinnott (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. The 2024 second-round pick from Kansas State has now opened the Commanders' week of practice with consecutive limited sessions after sustaining a shoulder injury in the team's wild-card win over the Buccaneers. Sinnott's practice participation Thursday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play through the issue in Saturday's divisional round matchup against the Lions. If he's unable to suit up, Washington's tight end room will likely consist of Zach Ertz (ribs) and John Bates.
Sinnott (shoulder) was a limited practice participant Tuesday. Sinnott hurt his shoulder in the first half of Sunday's wild-card win against Tampa Bay, but he was able to return after halftime. The rookie tight end logged 10 percent of Washington's offensive snaps in the victory -- which is in line with his usual snap share in recent weeks -- and didn't get any touches or targets. Sinnott's practice participation level Wednesday and Thursday should determine whether he is tagged with an injury designation heading into the weekend.
Sinnott (shoulder) returned to action in Sunday night's NFC wild-card game against Tampa Bay. Sinnott suffered a shoulder injury in the first half, but he has now returned to the field to open the second half. He'll continue to operate as the team's No. 3 tight end behind Zach Ertz and John Bates.
Sinnott (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday night's wild-card game against the Buccaneers. Sinnott went down with a shoulder injury in the first half, exiting the contest as a result. In his absence, Zach Ertz and John Bates will continue to handle the lion's share of the snaps at tight end.
Sinnott played 42 of the Commanders' 78 snaps on offense and recorded a seven-yard reception on his lone target in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Saints. Though the Commanders invested a second-round pick in April's draft into Sinnott, the 22-year-old tight end out of Kansas State has handled a relatively muted role during his rookie campaign. His reception in the Week 15 win was just his fifth of the season, but he could see his best opportunity to date to produce in this Sunday's game against the Eagles if top tight end Zach Ertz (concussion) is unable to play. After Ertz logged just 18 snaps against the Saints before departing, Sinnott and John Bates (42 snaps) finished with an even split of the playing time at tight end.
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.
