Mahki Whitney is a long, developmental tight end with upside but little game tape
Whitney enters the 2026 context as a 6-4, 198-pound redshirt freshman tight end at Washington State with no recorded game appearances in 2023 or 2024, so the evaluation is more projection than production. His appeal is the frame: he has the size to grow into a modern TE role, and his Washington roots plus sports-medicine background suggest a disciplined, development-friendly profile. Right now, he looks like a high-upside stash rather than an immediate plug-and-play answer for a team needing proven receiving or blocking impact.
