Ben Sinnott expected to play larger role in Commanders' offense
Summary

Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott could see increased involvement in the team's offense under new offensive coordinator David Blough. After moving on from previous coordinator Kliff Kingsbury, the Commanders aim to leverage Sinnott's skills in a more promising scheme. Former player and analyst Logan Paulsen believes Sinnott fits well, especially compared to his past under Kingsbury. Although Washington signed tight end Chig Okonkwo, Sinnott's potential usage remains significant, with plans for multiple tight end formations in 2026. This season is seen as pivotal for Sinnott as he seeks to demonstrate his impact.
