Darnell Washington Undergoes Arm Surgery, Likely Out for Season

Steelers tight end Darnell Washington underwent surgery Tuesday to repair a broken arm and is likely out for the remainder of the season, including any potential playoff run. Washington was a key offensive contributor, ranking fourth on the team with 364 receiving yards on 31 receptions and one touchdown. Head coach Mike Tomlin noted the team has other tight end options like Pat Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith, and Connor Heyward, along with strategic flexibility, to replace his production.
