Tahj Washington: Everything you need to know

Washington secured two of three targets for 26 yards during Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Patriots. Washington logged six regular-season appearances in 2025, in which span he secured three of five targets for 37 yards and fumbled once. The 2024 seventh-round pick saw the most playing time of his NFL career (20 offensive snaps) during Sunday's season finale against New England. Washington will enter the offseason competing to retain a depth role in the Dolphins' wide receiver corps.

Washington went without a target while playing five of the Dolphins' 55 snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Buccaneers. Suiting up for the first time since Week 11 after he had been inactive for Miami's previous four games, Washington was unable to carve out on a role on offense. He ranked a distant fifth in playing time among the Dolphins' five active receivers, trailing Cedrick Wilson (38 snaps), Malik Washington (35), Theo Wease (15) and Jaylen Waddle (14).

Washington secured one of two targets for 11 yards during Thursday's 28-6 loss to the Ravens. He also lost one fumble. Washington, a 2024 seventh-round pick, made the first catch of his NFL career versus Baltimore on Thursday Night Football on a quick throw to the sideline from Tua Tagovailoa. However, Washington lost possession of the ball, surrendering a crucial turnover deep in Dolphins territory that resulted in the Ravens' first touchdown of the night. After playing a season-high nine offensive snaps in Thursday's loss, it's possible Washington's costly mistake causes his playing time to decline Week 10 versus Buffalo.
