Darnell Washington — Active
Washington made his one catch count, out-muscling a defender for the goal-line score. The burly tight end has Aaron Rodgers' eyes in the scoring area and now has a touchdown in back-to-back weeks and three of his last four outings. On the year, Washington has 16 grabs for 160 yards and three scores on 23 targets. He's a touchdown-or-bust fantasy bet most weeks.
Darnell Washington — Active
The Steelers entered the fourth quarter trailing 16-3, but Washington sparked the comeback with a five-yard touchdown to make it 16-10. It was the big tight end's second touchdown of the season, and he's now recorded 15 grabs for 156 yards and the two scores on 22 targets through six games. He's on pace for a career year in the receiving department and is a preferred target of Aaron Rodgers near the goal line due to his sheer size advantage.
Darnell Washington — Active
Both of Washington's catches came in the first half, and he saw just one more target from Aaron Rodgers in the third quarter. Pat Freiermuth was the more productive tight end in this one, finishing with a 5-44-2 receiving line on seven targets. Washington will take an 11-131-1 receiving line on 16 targets into the Steelers' Week 6 road tilt against the Buccaneers, whose defense ranks in the bottom-10 in the league in receiving yards allowed to tight ends this season.
Darnell Washington — Active
Washington was one of four Steelers who tied for second on the team with three receptions. Most of his yardage came on a 21-yard touchdown catch early in the fourth quarter that brought Pittsburgh to within five points. Washington began the campaign with a quiet first two weeks, but he's put together a solid 6-94-1 receiving line over his past two contests. He and the Steelers will next face Indianapolis at home next Sunday.
Darnell Washington — Active
Washington's three catches were as many as he had accumulated through the first two games of the season. He was responsible for the Steelers' longest play late in the fourth quarter, when he took a short pass from Aaron Rodgers and broke multiple tackles for a 47-yard gain, leading to what was ultimately the game-winning field goal by Chris Boswell. Washington was on the field for 47 of the Steelers' 62 offensive snaps (75.8 percent), noticeably ahead of Pat Freiermuth (37). Washington will take a 6-92-0 receiving line on eight targets into Thursday's game against the Browns, whose defense ranks in the bottom-10 in yards allowed to tight ends this season.
