Darnell Washington

✦ Blitz AI

Darnell Washington's 71.2 rating places him 23rd among tight ends, a solid middle-tier contributor who has climbed 5.8 points since his last evaluation. The surge reflects strong efficiency work in the early 2026 season: he is in the 79th percentile in yards per opportunity and the 79th percentile in red zone production despite limited games played. His rating blends 40% of his current five-game sample with his 2025 season rating of 77.5, which stabilizes the evaluation against small-sample noise. Washington's main limitations are a recent trend in the 51st percentile and opportunity volume in the 62nd percentile, suggesting that while he converts what he gets, the Steelers are not force-feeding him targets at the rate needed to lift him into elite territory.
