Forget the depth chart — Ben Sinnott might be forcing his way into a bigger role than anyone expected.
The rookie tight end has been lighting up training camp, making one-handed catches, breaking tackles, and even lining up in unexpected spots in the offense. Insiders say coaches are quietly designing plays specifically for him, and defensive backs are already sick of trying to cover the 6’4” mismatch machine.
One NFC scout told reporters:
“He plays like a vet… and he’s only going to get better.”
With Washington’s offense looking for more red-zone threats, Sinnott’s rise could shake up the pecking order — and maybe even lead to a shocking veteran being pushed out.
Could the Commanders’ quietest draft pick turn into their loudest weapon by Week 1? Fans might be about to find out.
