Who Should I Start? Dallas Goedert or Ben Sinnott

Friday, December 5, 10:24 PM

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert tallied fewer than 30 yards for the third straight game in last week's loss to the Chicago Bears. Goedert's scoreless streak has now extended to four games, and he has totaled just 11 targets since Week 11. His recent woes may continue on Monday night as Philly travels to Los Angeles to meet the Chargers, who allow the sixth-least amount of fantasy points to tight ends this season. At this point, Goedert has betrayed what trust is left in him several times. If all of his touchdowns on the season were wiped off the board, he'd have one, arguably two strong showings under his belt. Especially when faced with a strong defense, he should be considered a low-end TE2 in Week 14.

Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott is in line for more opportunities after Zach Ertz (knee) unfortunately suffered a torn ACL during Sunday's loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Sinnott has played just 26.9% of the snaps for Washington this season, operating as the team's third tight end behind Ertz and John Bates. The second-year tight end has been solid as a blocker, but he hasn't seen many opportunities as a receiver with Ertz still clearly being a useful pass-catcher. Sinnott, a 2024 second-round pick, has strong athletic traits and should be expected to slot in as Washington's top receiving tight end for the rest of the season. In 29 career games, he's hauled in all nine of his targets for 69 yards and two touchdowns. He recorded a reception for eight yards on Washington's opening drive against the Vikings, but there's also a possibility that he splits reps with Colson Yankoff. Sinnott is the better bet between the two because of his draft capital, and he profiles as a low-end TE2 for the Week 15 game against the division-rival New York Giants.
