The Ravens signed Washington to their practice squad Wednesday. Washington worked out for Baltimore earlier in the week, and the team evidently was pleased with his showing. The tight end spent the summer with the Ravens but was cut with an injury settlement after he broke his hand during the preseason. With Charlie Kolar suffering a broken arm in Week 12, Washington gives the Ravens some added depth at the position.
Washington (hand) worked out for the Ravens on Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Washington spent the summer with Baltimore but suffered a broken hand in the preseason and was later let go with an injury settlement in August. Evidently now healthy, Washington is seeking his next NFL opportunity.
Baltimore waived Washington (hand) with an injury settlement Tuesday, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. Washington sustained a fracture in his hand during the preseason, and the Ravens have now decided to part ways with him. His injury settlement means he would technically be allowed to play at some point during the 2024 season after he recovers from his hand issue.
Washington broke his hand during Saturday's preseason game against the Eagles, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports. Washington was likely fighting for a depth spot in the Ravens' tight end room, so this injury hurts his chances of making the team's 53-man roster. Expect both Mike Rigerman and Riley Sharp to see more preseason reps with Washington sidelined for the foreseeable future.
Washington signed with Cincinnati in 2020 as an undrafted free agent and has spent most of his career on the practice squads of the Bengals and Patriots. He was released by New England on Aug. 27 ahead of the 53-man roster deadline but was not invited back to their practice squad. Washington will now have a chance to crack an active roster with the Steelers.
