Summary
Ben Sinnott enters Year 3 as Washington’s TE2 at age 23, ranked #196 at the position in Verdict’s dynasty score (20.0, stable trend). His 37.1% average offensive snap share in 2025, trending up, positions him for increased usage in the spread system. Contender rosters should prioritize Sinnott over rookie alternatives due to his established 11/13 target share and 1 TD mark from 2025.
Projection Rationale
Sinnott’s 37.1% average offense snap share in 2025, trending up, positions him for increased usage in the spread system under Kliff Kingsbury. The 2025 baseline — 114 receiving yards on 11/13 targets with 1 TD — shows a target share that scales in custom scoring. Washington’s TE2 role holds minimal opportunity risk with 4 rushing first downs on 4 carries adding meaningful secondary value.
Injury Risk
Sinnott carried full participation in practice in Week 13, 2025, with no injury history beyond a Week 11 DNPs. The 4 rushing first downs on 4 carries favor sliding over contact. Structural durability remains a concern through age 24.
Opportunity Notes
Snap share trended up in 2025, averaging 37.1% with weekly marks at 4.0%, 32.0%, 30.0%, 39.0%, 17.0%, 25.0%, 57.0%, 69.0%, and 61.0%. Washington runs a spread system under Kingsbury with quick-hitting concepts and RPOs. No TE1 threat exists on the depth chart. With 114 receiving yards and 11/13 targets, designed target volume remains part of the play call.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Kliff Kingsbury’s spread system under Dan Quinn leverages Sinnott’s target share with quick-hitting concepts and RPOs. The 37.1% average offense snap share in 2025, trending up, positions Sinnott for increased usage in this system. Washington’s 2025 TE2 role holds minimal opportunity risk with 4 rushing first downs on 4 carries adding secondary value.
Trend Assessment
Stable
Verdict’s dynasty score and trade value model both indicate a stable outlook for Sinnott, reflecting his 37.1% average offensive snap share in 2025, trending up, and an 11/13 target share from the previous season.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling clears 2025’s 22.9-point finish if target volume advances past 11/13 and rushing first downs expand beyond 4 — the combination pays heavily in this custom format with +0.5 first downs. Floor tracks near 22.9 given locked 37.1% snap share and an unchanged scheme. A mid-season injury is the only realistic path to meaningful regression below that line.
Comparable Player
His target share in a spread system draws comparisons to Cole Kmet in 2020 Chicago — similar young TE2 in a pass-heavy system with similar target volume.
