WATCH: Ben Sinnott scores TD just before halftime on TNF vs Giants

It was an ugly first half for the Washington Commanders offense against the New York Giants on Thursday Night Football. However, they were still able to go into halftime with a 10-7 lead thanks to tight end Ben Sinnott.Sinnott came into the game after starting tight end Chig Okonkwo had to exit the game with a back injury; his return is still questionable. Prior to this game, Sinnott only had one catch all season. But on Washington’s final drive of the first half, Sinnott played a major role. He had a 12-yard catch that set the Commanders up in the red zone, which included an impressive hurdle.
