Who Should I Start? Brock Wright or Ben Sinnott

Friday, November 7, 10:24 PM

Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright has recorded nine catches for 71 yards and two touchdowns on 10 targets across eight games played in 2025. The 26-year-old is firmly behind Sam LaPorta on the Lions' tight end depth chart and sees most of his work come as a blocker. However, there's some reason to believe Wright may see the field a bit more in Week 10. The Lions have been struggling in pass protection recently, allowing 14 sacks over their last four games. Additionally, starting left tackle Taylor Decker (shoulder) and swing tackle Dan Skipper (back) are both questionable to play on Sunday against the Washington Commanders. Detroit's offensive line issues could lead to more two-tight-end sets and heavier personnel usage, which would benefit Wright. Still, it's hard to imagine he'll be able to provide even modest fantasy production without a touchdown reception in Week 10.

Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott could be in line to see more snaps in Week 3 against the Raiders with tight end John Bates (groin) out. Sinnott has operated as Washington's third tight end since being drafted in the second round of last year's draft, but he has a chance to see a career high in snaps this week. Sinnott only played three snaps total and caught one ball for eight yards with Bates injured in Week 2's loss to the Packers, and how often he plays in Week 3 will be telling for the second-year tight end. He's not a direct replacement for Bates because he's not as good a blocker at the point of attack, but he is solid at blocking on the move and is an excellent athlete. There could be some specific packages for Sinnott against the Raiders, and getting a real look at him in game action will be noteworthy for his dynasty value. But he isn't on radars in redraft leagues for Week 3.
