Darnell Washington caught his only target for a four-yard touchdown in the Steelers’ Week 7 win over the Saints.

25 October 2026

Washington used his massive — massive seems like a huge understatement — size to haul in a touchdown near the sideline. That’s his third touchdown in four games, and it’s pretty clear that he’s become a focal point once the Steelers get inside of the red zone. He just isn’t much of one outside of those opportunities, and that makes him the most touchdown dependent tight end to ever exist. Maybe a little bit of hyperbole there. Washington will try and score again in Week 8 against the Browns.
