When the Pittsburgh Steelers selected TE Darnell Washington in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft, he came in with the reputation as an elite blocking tight end, and it’s one he’s more or less lived up to during his time in Pittsburgh. Washington has been used sparingly in the passing game, although he did catch a touchdown in Week With his 6-7 and 272-pound frame, Washington was asked if he feels like he could play offensive tackle if needed.

“I feel like if I put my mind to it, and [if] that’s what the team needs, I feel like I could,” Washington said via Aaron Becker of Yardbarker on Twitter.
