22-Year-Old Tight EndTE
Washington Commanders
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Sinnott was the second tight end selected in the 2024 NFL Draft, going 53rd overall to Washington, where he will have the opportunity to carve out a prominent role from the get-go alongside rookie second overall pick Jayden Daniels. Logan Thomas is a free agent after leading all Commanders tight ends with 496 receiving yards last season, though Washington brought in 33-year-old Zach Ertz as part of the effort to replace Thomas. Given that Ertz had only 187 receiving yards in seven games with the Cardinals last season before suffering a quadriceps injury, it's probably just a matter of time until Sinnott finds himself atop the depth chart. The 6-foot-4, 250-pound tight end caught 49 passes for 676 yards and six touchdowns at Kansas State in 2023, showing impressive run-after-the-catch ability and good speed (4.68) for a player that started his college career as a fullback.

October 29, 2024
Sinnott was not targeted during Washington's 18-15 win over the Bears on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
The rookie second-round pick played just 22 percent of the 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). Sinnott continues to battle with Bates for opportunities behind Ertz, and he lacks a clear path to fantasy upside. Sinnott secured both of his targets for six yards and a score in Week 7 versus Carolina, but he's been held without a catch in seven of eight appearances on the year.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Outlook bright under Kingsbury
TEWashington Commanders
May 9, 2024
Sinnott, who the Commanders selected out of Kansas State in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft, should have a robust rookie role despite the presence of veteran Zach Ertz, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Sinnott showed off his pass-catching chops over his last two seasons with the Wildcats, compiling 80 receptions for 1,123 yards and 10 touchdowns across 26 games in that span. Ertz is certainly an accomplished receiver in his own right who has experience playing under new Commanders offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury during their mutual time in Arizona; however, Keim points out the Cardinals ran the seventh-most plays in the league with two tight ends over the last three seasons of his tenure as head coach.
