Big game for Big O: UGA TE Darnell Washington finally gets some love

Georgia freshman tight end Darnell ‘Big O’ Washington was one of the most highly rated recruits in the country when he signed with Georgia as a member of the Bulldogs’ No. 1 ranked recruiting class of 2020.

The 5-star prospect from Desert Pines High School in Las Vegas, Nevada, was rated as the No. 2 athlete and No. 23 prospect overall at six-foot-seven, 270 pounds.

For most of his first season in Athens, Big O has played as an in-line blocker at the tight end position, only recording two catches before Saturday’s game at Missouri.
