Ben Sinnott Far More Active in Training Camp

Friday, July 31, 2:14 PM

Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott has been "far more active," as well as Chig Okonkwo, in terms of running routes and versatility under new offensive coordinator David Blough than they had been the previous two seasons, according to John Keim of ESPN. Sinnott and the other tight ends "have run a wider variety of routes" so far in training camp. "It's not even close," Sinnott said. "So many different variations. Today we're lining up at number one [receiver on the outside], we're running five-step ins, we're running corners, we're running options, we're running flat [routes]. We're just doing everything. It's so much fun. It's a breath of fresh air for this offense and how it uses tight ends." The 24-year-old Sinnott, who was a second-rounder in 2024 from Kansas State, has only caught 16 passes for 142 yards and two touchdowns in his first two NFL seasons in D.C., so this is pretty new to him. While he could be used as more of a pass-catcher in Blough's offense, Sinnott would likely need an injury to Okonkwo to become relevant as a streaming TE in fantasy football leagues in 2026.

Schultz: Tyler Warren Should be Back Next Week

Wednesday, August 19, 6:10 PM

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) sustained an abductor strain during Wednesday's practice but is not expected to miss much time, per Jordan Schultz. Schultz said the second-year tight end should be fine and back next week. Warren enters the 2026 season with vacated targets after wideout Michael Pittman Jr.'s departure and the ankle injury that is currently keeping Alec Pierce out of practice. As a rookie, Warren caught 76 of 112 targets for 817 yards and four touchdowns, averaging 8.9 half-PPR fantasy points per game and finishing as the TE5 in 2025. With quarterback Daniel Jones back and healthy after missing the final four games of the season, Warren is hopeful for a breakout year in 2026 and appears to have avoided a major injury that could have affected his early-season value.
