Darnell Washington Weighs 315 Pounds, Says Russell Wilson

Like the fish your buddy caught up at the lake, TE Darnell Washington keeps getting bigger every time someone talks about it. Listed at 264 pounds, teammate Pat Freiermuth first hinted his actual weight is far heavier. Then TEs Coach Alfredo Roberts hinted Washington is pushing three bills. Now, Russell Wilson has weighed in on where he’s tipping the scales.

“Darnell [Washington] has got such big physical attributes,” Wilson said Tuesday via a team-issued transcript. “In terms of, he’s 315 pounds, can run, can catch.”

If he truly is 315 pounds, it would make him the size of many offensive linemen.
