Georgia tight end Darnell Washington was one of the hottest names heading into the 2023 NFL scouting combine — at least amongst Miami Dolphins fans. But after his performance on Saturday, the chance that he’s available when Miami is on the clock seems more and more unlikely by the day.
Standing at 6’6, 264 pounds, Washington put on a clinic at the combine. He ran a 4.64 in the 40-yard dash and had the second-fastest 20-yard shuttles among all wide receivers and tight ends at this weekend’s combine. (Only Ohio State’s Jaxon Smith-Njigba had a faster time) He also made one of the most spectacular catches we may have ever seen at the combine.
