Commanders lacking in tight end production through four weeks

The Commanders have gotten next to nothing from their tight ends through four weeks.

The Washington Commanders' tight ends have been struggling to make meaningful contributions to the team's offense during the first four weeks of the season. The early-season expectations surrounding tight ends Chig Okonkwo and Ben Sinnott have not been met. Both players have been targeted a combined total of 17 times, with Okonkwo receiving the higher number.

However, Okonkwo missed the first three weeks of the season due to an injury and returned last week. Despite training camp preparations, Okonkwo and Sinnott have not delivered the expected production. Commanders head coach Dan Quinn has acknowledged that these issues have impacted the team's offensive success. Quinn hopes that with Daniels and his tight ends back together, there will be improvement in the upcoming game against the Giants.
