Tevin Washington (born May 19, 1990) is an American football player. He played college football as a quarterback for the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets from 2009 to 2012. Washington came to the Georgia Institute of Technology after a successful prep career in Alabama. He became a starter for Georgia Tech as a redshirt sophomore after Joshua Nesbitt was injured during 2010 football season, and emerged as a dual-threat quarterback.
Washington played four years of football, including two as a team captain, under coach Chad Anderson at Wetmpka High School. Washington led Wetumpka to a 10–2 record in 2007 as a senior. Washington passed for more than 200 yards five times as a senior, and he also rushed for 1,088 yards and 14 touchdowns. Washington's high school career totals include 5,042 yards passing, 2,097 yards rushing, 42 passing touchdowns and 25 rushing touchdowns. Washington's high school honors include: first team class 6A all-state, two-time member of the Montgomery Advertiser all-metro team, and he earned all-county honors three times.
Washington became starting quarterback for Georgia Tech on November 4, 2010 after Joshua Nesbitt was injured during a football game against Virginia Tech. Nesbitt threw a late interception and then broke his arm trying to tackle the defender carrying the errant pass. The Jackets lost that game 28–21, but Washington, who had risen to the backup spot after Jaybo Shaw transferred earlier in the year, held his own. He led a fourth-quarter touchdown drive to tie the game at 21 and then drove Tech in the final minutes to the Hokies’ 16-yard line, where his pass into the end zone was intercepted with eight seconds remaining, ending the game. Washington then faced the University of Miami for the first time as a starter on November 13, 2010. Washington played four games as Georgia Tech's starting quarterback to finish out the 2010 football season. The Yellow Jackets won only one of those games which was against Duke on November 20, 2010. However, during those four games, Washington gained valuable experience, and he helped lead the Yellow Jackets to 6–0 start during the first half of the 2011 football season.
