Utah WR exits portal, lands at Purdue

Purdue picked up a promising wideout from the portal on Monday, gaining a commitment from Utah’s David Washington, he tells GoldandBlack.com. He’ll have four years of eligibility.
“I have family here, and it felt like the right fit,” said Washington, who was on campus today. “I am very excited.”
Washington is the fourth portal wideout to commit to Purdue in April, joining Nitro Tuggle and Michael Jackson of Georgia and Corey Smith of Tulsa. Washington is Purdue’s 17th portal pledge in April.
