Washington caught two of four targets for 15 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 26-23 loss to the Colts. The 2023 sixth-round pick had a quiet day overall but found the end zone in the fourth quarter on a nine-yard pass from Mac Jones. Washington didn't see much action early in the season but took on a larger role due to injuries in the receiving corps, and he finished the campaign with 32 receptions for 390 yards and three touchdowns. Rookie Brian Thomas ended the season as Jacksonville's only consistent producer in the passing game, and Washington is unlikely to enter training camp as much more than the team's third or fourth wideout.

Washington caught two of four targets for 15 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 26-23 loss to the Colts. The 2023 sixth-round pick had a quiet day overall but found the end zone in the fourth quarter on a nine-yard pass from Mac Jones. Washington didn't see much action early in the season but took on a larger role due to injuries in the receiving corps, and he finished the campaign with 32 receptions for 390 yards and three touchdowns. Rookie Brian Thomas ended the season as Jacksonville's only consistent producer in the passing game, and Washington is unlikely to enter training camp as much more than the team's third or fourth wideout.
Washington recorded three receptions on three targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Titans. Brian Thomas remained the only pass catcher in Jacksonville to see significant volume in the game, with Washington finishing second on the team in targets. Washington did deliver a pair of key catches, the first being an impressive, leaping two-yard touchdown in the back of the end zone early in the second quarter. He then recorded a 24-yard gain that helped get the Jaguars in position for a game-clinching touchdown in the final quarter. Washington has done a solid job stepping up in a depleted Jaguars' receiving corps, having topped 50 receiving yards and/or finding the end zone in four of his last five games.
Washington caught all six of his targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 19-14 loss to the Raiders. The 22-year-old and Brian Thomas (nine catches for 132 yards) were the only Jacksonville pass catchers to tally more than two receptions on a day when quarterback Mac Jones completed a pass to nine different players. Washington was targeted once in the red zone and earned a pass interference call, which set up a goal-line touchdown for Tank Bigsby. Washington has 17 catches for 226 yards and one touchdown across the past four games and should continue to operate as the Jaguars No. 2 wideout down the stretch.
Washington caught three of six targets for 54 yards during Sunday's 32-25 loss to the Jets. The 2023 sixth-round pick was second among Jacksonville's wideouts with an 86 percent snap share and finished third on the team in targets and receiving yards. Quarterback Mac Jones attempted 46 passes on the day, but Brian Thomas and Brenton Strange combined for 26 of those targets. Washington should continue to operate as Jacksonville's No. 2 wide receiver, and he's been moderately involved in the passing game over the past three weeks with 11 receptions for 172 yards and a touchdown.
Washington caught both his targets for 15 yards during Sunday's 10-6 win against the Titans. The 22-year-old played 44 of 59 offensive snaps Sunday but wasn't significantly involved in the passing game after breaking out with six catches for 103 yards and a touchdown Week 13 versus Houston. The recent waiver claim of Josh Reynolds brings more depth to Jacksonville's receiving corps, but Washington still should continue to work as the No. 2 wideout. However, Washington can't be relied upon as a consistent fantasy producer with Mac Jones under center for the Jaguars, as evidenced by the past two weeks.
Washington (shoulder) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest in Tennessee. Washington showed up on the Jaguars' Week 14 practice report Thursday as limited due to a shoulder injury and maintained that activity level Friday, per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site. However, the issue won't impact Washington's availability this weekend. Prior to his 6-103-1 performance on 12 targets this past Sunday against the Texans, he had a cumulative 10-118-0 line on 18 targets through the first 11 games of the campaign, so it may be difficult for Washington to replicate the most recent fruitful outing.
Washington was a limited participant at practice Thursday due to a shoulder injury. Washington practiced fully Wednesday, but he may have hurt his shoulder at some point during that session, as he was spotted in an orange non-contact jersey when he took the field Thursday, per Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union. Friday's injury report will clarify whether the wideout's shoulder issue is anything that could affect his status for Sunday's game against the Titans. Washington is coming off a 6-103-1 receiving effort on 12 targets in the Jaguars' 23-20 loss to the Texans in Week 13.
Washington brought in six of 12 targets for 103 yards and a touchdown and also caught a two-point conversion pass in the Jaguars' 23-20 loss to the Texans on Sunday. Washington was the surprise leader in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the Jaguars with figures that all qualified as career highs. The 2023 sixth-round pick's breakout performance isn't necessarily an outlier -- although it may be an uphill battle to fully replicate if Mac Jones remains the starting quarterback in place of Trevor Lawrence (concussion) -- considering Washington is in line for an expanded role for the remainder of the season now that Gabe Davis (knee) has joined Christian Kirk (collarbone) on season-ending injured reserve. Washington next takes aim at the Titans in a Week 14 road clash.
Washington caught one of three targets for 10 yards during Sunday's 52-6 loss to Detroit. The 2023 sixth-round pick's 10-yard reception Sunday is his lone catch in two games with Mac Jones under center for the Jaguars. However, Washington should be more involved going forward since Gabe Davis was ruled out for the season due to a torn meniscus, though the fantasy upside will be limited as long as Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) is sidelined.
