Steelers, Darnell Washington Agree to Four-Year Extension

Wednesday, June 3, 6:07 PM

The Pittsburgh Steelers and tight end Darnell Washington agreed to a four-year, $42 million contract extension on Wednesday, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. The hulking 6-foot-7, 264-pounder has developed into a key piece of Pittsburgh's offense after they selected him in the third round (93rd overall) in 2023 out of the University of Georgia. Although the 24-year-old hasn't been on the fantasy football radar, outside of dynasty/keeper leagues, he could have an even bigger role with the Steelers in 2026 after both Jonnu Smith and Connor Heyward left in free agency this offseason. Washington had his best year as a pro in 2025 in Year 3 in the Steel City, catching 31 of his 43 targets for 364 yards and just one touchdown in 16 regular-season games (13 starts). Pat Freiermuth remains the better fantasy target in single-year leagues, but Washington could be a Freiermuth injury away from becoming a weekly TE option for fantasy managers.

Browns Agree With Jack Stoll on One-Year Deal

Wednesday, March 11, 9:24 AM

The Cleveland Browns agreed with free-agent tight end Jack Stoll on an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, sources told Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network. The former Philadelphia Eagles undrafted free agent will head to the AFC North after spending a year with the New Orleans Saints in 2025. The 28-year-old Nebraska product played the first three years of his NFL career in Philly, catching 20 of his 27 targets for 183 yards and no touchdowns in 50 games (26 starts). Last year with New Orleans, Stoll played in 15 games (four starts) and caught just six of 11 targets for 46 yards and the first touchdown of his career. He finished the year on Injured Reserve due to a knee injury, but he should be a full-go for the start of the 2026 campaign later this year. In Cleveland, Stoll will provide depth behind Harold Fannin Jr., who quickly took over as the Browns' top pass-catching TE in his first year in the league. Stoll can be ignored in all fantasy formats with his move to Cleveland.
