Elijah Washington-Baker is Syracuse’s 6-foot-7 red-zone chess piece
In the 2025 season, Elijah Washington-Baker has been a low-volume but high-upside Syracuse tight end, with 1 catch for 17 yards and a touchdown, while also contributing on special teams with two career tackles. At 6-foot-7 and 250 pounds, he brings a huge catch radius, mismatch potential, and utility value—exactly the kind of frame coaches love near the goal line. He’s still more of a developmental piece than a featured stat-sheet hog, but his size, special-teams willingness, and touchdown flash make him an intriguing fit for a team that wants a physical, versatile TE with upside.
