Who Should I Start? Josh Whyle or Ben Sinnott

Thursday, August 7, 9:20 AM

Tennessee Titans tight end Gunnar Helm was listed as the team's second tight end on the first unofficial depth chart, behind only Chig Okonkwo and ahead of Josh Whyle, who was the team's second tight end last year. The Titans drafted Helm out of Texas with the No. 120 pick in the fourth round of the NFL Draft after he logged 60 catches for 786 yards and seven touchdowns in Texas's quick passing game. Helm had a bad combine, potentially due to injury, but he has earned playing time with a strong training camp and could become a favorite target for rookie quarterback Cam Ward. Helm and the Titans start preseason on Saturday in Tampa Bay, and it will be important to see exactly how the tight end work is divided going into Week 1 against the Broncos.

Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott (ankle) has been downgraded to out ahead of Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Miami Dolphins. The 23-year-old popped up on the injury report as a limited participant on Thursday, and he was a non-participant on Friday. Sinnott, a second-year tight end, has caught all three of his targets for 33 yards and a touchdown this season. He has been firmly entrenched in a depth role behind Zach Ertz. The Kansas State product's absence will result in John Bates backing up Ertz this Sunday.
