Breaking down what the Commanders are getting from their second round tight end
Let’s start with the run blocking. It’s not the flashy part of the game that will be on highlight reels, but it’s something that could get Sinnott on the field early and often in his NFL career. Sinnott can be inconsistent with his technique, which I’ll get onto later, but he’s a feisty blocker that doesn’t shy away from contact and being involved in the run game. Let’s start with the most basic type of block he’ll be asked to do. Every team will run some form of zone run scheme and when they do, they’ll often ask the tight end to sift back across the line and cut off the back side defensive end with a cut block.
