2025 NFL Draft Prospect Interview: Alex Washington, LB, William & Mary
What makes you a top prospect at your position in the 2025 NFL Draft?

What is one thing that NFL teams should know about you?
I grew up on a farm working every day so coming to work every day to play football is a blessing.
If you could donate to one cause in the world, what would it be?
I would donate to the education and support of the youth. There are plenty of kids who need help getting structure in their lives academically and providing support for organizations that provide help to these kids would be a top choice.
