2024 Fantasy Outlook
Washington was expected by many to be selected in the fourth round of the 2024 draft. The receiver fell into the sixth round, and Miami selected the receiver with the No. 184 pick. At 5-foot-9, 191 pounds and not showing great route versatility, Washington projects to be a slot receiver. Currently, the Dolphins have Braxton Berrios and River Cracraft who have functioned at times in the No. 3 receiver role. Should Washington have a strong training camp, it’s possible he can challenge Berrios and Cracraft for a regular role in the offense. However, with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle dominating targets, the No. 3 role in Miami is unlikely to provide significant target volume.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for increased role
WRMiami Dolphins
September 30, 2025
Washington is expected to take on a larger role in the Miami offense with Tyreek Hill sidelined, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Hill will be out for the rest of the season due to a serious knee injury suffered Monday against the Jets, opening up a lot of opportunity in the Miami offense. Darren Waller stepped up to score twice in Monday's win, but Washington didn't immediately see an increased role, earning a season-low 48 percent of offensive snaps and only three targets. However, he performed well during the preseason and has shown some explosiveness as a punt returner, suggesting he could excel with additional offensive touches.
