  1. It appears that the smaller regional Delta plane was told to go to the runway red hold line and held short too far from the runway red hold line with its tail sticking too close to the taxiway and the larger Delta Airbus 350’s long wing cut the tail off the smaller regional plane as it was taxing to the longer runway.

  2. The Ground Controller directs the jets to the runway via a set of taxiways and knows the type of jet. The A350 pilot can’t see its wing tips, typically in close contact with other aircraft you have guys walking or driving cars to see the wing tips clearance.

  3.  @SusanKay-  The NTSB’s report will come up with recommendations. Maybe the taxiway width is too narrow for the long wings of the A350, the runway red hold short line is too close to the taxiway for a jet to get pass if a jet is holding short.
