Former Georgia tight end Darnell Washington might’ve had the best highlight from the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine.
While the tight ends went through drills on Saturday, Washington made an absolutely phenomenal one-handed catch that rocked the entire combine.
Players usually get some love from the crowd when they complete an impressive combine drill, but you could really feel the shock from those watching at just how impressive it was for Washington to haul in the ball like that.
The Georgia standout has positioned himself as a possible first-round pick, and moments like that are surely going to help his draft potential.
OH MY, DARNELL WASHINGTON.
WHAT A CATCH. @GeorgiaFootball

With Georgia players all the rage these days in the draft process, don’t be surprised if a tight end-needy team will be ecstatic to get Washington in the building this April. He might be the next star at the position.
