He’s from Houston, Texas and is currently there for the offseason

Washington is a native of Houston, Texas — so we know where he lies in the Texas vs. Georgia high school football debate.

“I’m actually in Houston, Texas, right now,” Washington told reporters. “It’s not too bad out here. I have a gym that I work out at, and I do a lot of things on my own trying to keep with the social distancing. I’m from Houston, so I usually come back out to Houston during the offseason.”

We’ll have to ask him about whether he thinks Texas or Kansas City barbecue is better once he arrives.
