Turns 10 targets into 115 yards
Washington caught eight of 10 targets for 115 yards and rushed once for minus-5 yards in Sunday's 23-17 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Washington led the Jaguars in receiving yards on 10 targets for the second time in as many weeks. He has drawn double-digit targets four times this season and remains a key receiver for Trevor Lawrence, even with Jakobi Meyers and Brian Thomas both healthy. Washington will look to keep his late-season surge going in Week 18 against the Titans as the Jaguars try to clinch the AFC South.

Career-best performance
Washington recorded six receptions on 10 targets for 145 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 34-20 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Washington has been a reliable target for Trevor Lawrence for most of the season, but he stepped up as the team's top pass catcher in Sunday's win. His longest gain of the day came late in the third quarter, when he caught a short pass and then split a pair of defenders before cutting upfield for 63 yards. Washington also chipped in additional long gains of 24, 21 and 20 yards on top of a 12-yard touchdown to record his highest yardage total in a matchup. He now has at least 70 receiving yards…read more

Catches all three targets in return
Washington (hip) caught all three of his targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 48-20 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Washington returned from a one-game absence and reprised his role as the No. 3 wide receiver behind Brian Thomas and Jakobi Meyers, who each saw seven targets Sunday. With Thomas and Meyers both healthy, Washington isn't expected to play a significant role in Week 16 against the Broncos.

Ready to face Jets
Washington (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Jets.
Analysis: The 23-year-old was considered questionable despite putting in a full practice Friday, so it's not much of a surprise he's good to suit up Week 15. After sitting out last week's win over the Colts due to the hip issue, Washington should reclaim his role as Jacksonville's No. 3 wideout behind Brian Thomas and Jakobi Meyers.

Questionable after full practice
Washington (hip) was a full participant in Friday's practice and officially is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets.
Analysis: Washington opened Week 15 prep with back-to-back limited practice sessions, but after having no restrictions Friday, he now seems to be trending in the right direction. If Washington manages to gain clearance in time for Sunday's home matchup with New York, he'll compete for targets with all of Brian Thomas, Jakobi Meyers and tight end Brenton Strange.

Likely to be sidelined Sunday
Washington (hip), who is officially questionable to suit up against Indianapolis on Sunday, isn't expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Washington had to miss most of Sunday's win over Tennessee after suffering a hip injury. He logged a DNP/LP/LP practice progression this week, and it looks like that won't be enough for him to take the field against the Colts. Austin Trammell, Tim Patrick, or Dyami Brown may be asked to slide up to the team's No. 3 wideout role behind Brian Thomas and Jakobi Meyers.

Questionable for Week 14
Washington (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus the Colts.
Analysis: Washington left in the first half of this past Sunday's win at Tennessee with a hip injury that kept him sidelined from the Jaguars' first Week 14 session Wednesday. He followed up that absence with back-to-back capped practices and now has a chance to suit up this weekend. Washington's status will be confirmed about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Washington (hip) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Washington was forced out of this past Sunday's win over the Titans after recording 24 snaps on offense. The wideout now has two more chances to practice before the Jaguars' Week 14 injury designations are released, but if Washington is limited or out this weekend against the Colts, added WR snaps alongside Brian Thomas and Jakobi Meyers would be available for the likes of Tim Patrick, Dyami Brown and practice squad member Austin Trammell.

Team-high seven targets in win
Washington secured five of seven targets for 71 yards and one touchdown in Jacksonville's overtime win over Arizona on Sunday.
Analysis: Washington didn't see his first target of the game until deep into the second quarter, and he recorded all of his catches and yards after halftime. His seven targets ended up pacing Jacksonville's offense. Washington caught a nine-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter to give the Jaguars a 24-21 lead with 3:47 to play in regulation.

Analysis: The 2023 sixth-round pick entered Sunday's contest with 15 catches for 175 yards and a touchdown over the previous three games, but Washington was minimally involved in the passing game versus Los Angeles despite leading Jacksonville's wideouts with 54 offensive snaps.

Analysis: Washington didn't practice Wednesday and was limited both Thursday and Friday, but he has gained clearance to suit up Sunday. He has been targeted at least seven times in each of Jacksonville's last three games, but Washington's usage may dip if the Jaguars get Brian Thomas (ankle) back Sunday.

Analysis: Washington, who has logged 26 targets over the Jaguars' last three games, was on the field for 87 percent of his team's Week 10 snaps on offense, but now that he's dealing with a hamstring issue, his status will need to be tracked ahead of this weekend's game against the Chargers.

Finds end zone twice Sunday
Washington caught three of seven targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-29 loss to the Texans. He added 90 yards and a TD on two punt returns.
Analysis: The seven targets led the Jaguars, and while Washington wasn't particularly efficient with the volume, he was on the other end of Trevor Lawrence's only TD pass of the afternoon, a seven-yard toss in the first quarter. Washington's 73-yard punt return to the house in the second quarter was also the second of his career. The third-year wideout has seen 26 targets over the last three games while Travis Hunter (knee) and now Brian Thomas (ankle) are on the shelf, and the addition of Jakobi Meyers…read more

Washington could see additional opportunities Sunday against the Texans, as Brian Thomas (ankle) has been ruled out.
Analysis: The Jaguars will be without both Thomas and Travis Hunter (knee), with the latter on injured reserve. Washington has drawn at least nine targets three times this season, including each of the past two games. He and Dyami Brown, who cleared concussion protocol Friday, are set to lead Jacksonville's receiving corps along with Tuesday's trade acquisition Jakobi Meyers.

Leading receiver in OT win
Washington corralled eight of nine targets for 90 yards in Sunday's 30-29 overtime win over Las Vegas.
Analysis: Washington led the Jaguars in receiving Sunday with Travis Hunter (knee) being placed on injured reserve this week. It also helped that starter Brian Thomas (ankle) left the contest late in the fourth quarter, but most of Washington's production came with Thomas still active. Expect the 23-year-old to continue seeing extended run for as long as Hunter remains out. Washington's value could inflate further if Thomas is also unable to suit up against the Texans next Sunday.

Four grabs against Rams
Washington caught four of 10 targets for 52 yards in Sunday's 35-7 loss to the Rams. He added 10 rushing yards on three carries.
Analysis: It's the second time this season Washington saw double-digit targets, after he posted an 4-34-0 line on 11 targets in Week 3. The third-year wideout's increased role Sunday came as Brian Thomas (shoulder) missed time in the second half while the Jaguars tried to mount a comeback, but Washington's inability to capitalize on the two times this year he's seen elevated volume doesn't offer a lot of optimism for his fantasy value, even if Thomas is still sidelined after the team's Week 8 bye.

Two receptions Week 6
Washington secured two of four targets for 29 yards during Sunday's 20-12 loss against the Seahawks.
Analysis: The 2023 sixth-round pick finished second on the team in receiving yards, but that's not saying much given that Brian Thomas was the only Jacksonville pass catcher to eclipse 30 yards. Washington was fairly involved in the passing game across Weeks 2 and 3 with nine catches for 110 yards, but over the past three games he has just four receptions for 45 yards and a touchdown.

Catches TD in win over Kansas City
Washington caught two of three targets for 16 yards and one touchdown in the Jaguars' win over the Chiefs on Monday night.
Analysis: With Dyami Brown (shoulder) back from injury, Washington's offensive snaps were cut in a big way. After playing 85 percent of the snaps in Week 4, Washington was in on just 26 percent of the plays Monday. He made his playing time count, however, as Washington secured a three-yard touchdown from Trevor Lawrence in the second quarter. Washington owns an 11-126-1 receiving line on 21 targets through five games.

No catches on two targets Sunday
Washington failed to secure either of his two targets Sunday, but he returned a punt 87 yards for a touchdown in a 26-21 win over San Francisco.
Analysis: Washington failed to reproduce the whopping 11 targets he garnered in last week's win over Houston, but the 23-year-old left his mark on the contest when he took his only punt return to the house. Washington's inconsistent usage on offense makes him impossible to trust in standard fantasy formats heading into next Monday's road tilt against Kansas City.

Washington secured four of 11 targets for 34 yards during Sunday's 17-10 win over the Texans.

Analysis: The 2023 sixth-round pick played 17 of 66 offensive snaps but wasn't involved in the passing game in the season opener. Washington took a step forward in 2024 with 32 catches for 390 yards and three touchdowns, but he isn't likely to deliver much production this year while working as Jacksonville's No. 4 wideout behind Brian Thomas, Travis Hunter and Dyami Brown.

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.

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.

Washington caught three of six targets for 54 yards during Sunday's 32-25 loss to the Jets.
Analysis: 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.

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 campaign now that Gabe Davis (knee) has joined…read more

Analysis: 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.

Analysis: The 2023 sixth-round pick got the start Sunday with Gabe Davis (shoulder) inactive and Christian Kirk (collarbone) on injured reserve, and Washington finished second on the team in receptions, targets and receiving yards.

Takes punt to the house
Washington returned a kickoff for 27 yards and ran back a punt for a 96-yard touchdown in Sunday's 32-16 win against the Patriots.
Analysis: His coaches may not have been thrilled when they saw Washington field a punt from his own four-yard line inside the two-minute warning of the first half, but he quickly allayed any concerns when he brought it all the way to the end zone to put the Jaguars up 21-10. He also tied his season high in offensive snaps Sunday with 21, but he still projects to contribute primarily as a returner versus the Packers in Week 8.

Washington failed to catch his lone target during Sunday's 18-13 loss to the Browns.
Analysis: The rookie sixth-round pick played 13 of 60 offensive snaps as he once again operated as the Jaguars' No. 4 wide receiver. Gabe Davis, Christian Kirk and Brian Thomas continue to dominate the snaps at wideout for Jacksonville, and Washington is unlikely to have much involvement in the offensive while that trio remains healthy.

Four catches in preseason finale
Washington recorded four catches on five targets for 35 yards in Friday's 31-0 preseason win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Washington got the chance to play with Jacksonville's starting unit with Christian Kirk (calf) sidelined. He tallied a pair of receptions from Trevor Lawrence and then remained in the game for a few additional drives as Jacksonville's backups took the field. That's indicative of Washington's status on the depth chart, as he should operate as the fourth wide receiver when Kirk, Gabe Davis and Brian Thomas are all healthy.

Secures touchdown Saturday
Washington caught all three of his targets for 38 yards during Saturday's preseason game against the Buccaneers.
Analysis: The 22-year-old had a decent rookie campaign as a depth wideout last season, as he finished with 16 catches for 132 yards and two touchdowns in nine games. Washington has likely already secured a place on the season-opening roster, but he's competing with Devin Duvernay for the No. 4 spot on the depth chart. Neither wide receiver is likely to be fantasy relevant to begin the season with Christian Kirk (calf), Gabe Davis and first-round rookie Brian Thomas locked in as Jacksonville's top…read more

Stands out during OTAs
Parker has been impressive this spring and is well on his way to earning a roster spot, John Shipley of SI.com reports.
Analysis: The 2023 sixth-round pick didn't play much through the first three months of his rookie year but then got a look as the No. 3 receiver after Christian Kirk suffered a season-ending injury. Washington played at least 25 snaps in each of Jacksonville's final six games, catching 16 of 21 targets for 132 yards and two touchdowns in that stretch. He'll likely enter the upcoming season somewhere between third and fifth on the depth chart at wide receiver, with his initial role partially depending on…read more

Quiet close to season
Washington caught his lone target for 11 yards Week 18 against the Titans and finished the season with 16 catches for 132 yards and two touchdowns in nine games.
Analysis: Washington saw action in just one of Jacksonville's first nine games but was more involved during the second half of the campaign. The rookie sixth-round pick caught six passes for 61 yards and a touchdown against Cincinnati in Week 12 but otherwise wasn't noticeably involved in the passing game. Jacksonville's receiving corps could look different in 2024 with Calvin Ridley set to become a free agent, though Christian Kirk (groin) and Zay Jones remain under contract.

One catch Week 17
Washington caught his lone target for two yards and returned two punts for 17 yards during Sunday's 26-0 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: The rookie sixth-round pick's 40 percent snap share was his lowest since Week 12 despite the absence of Zay Jones (hamstring). Washington appeared primed for a breakout after he caught six passes for 61 yards and a touchdown Week 13 against Cincinnati, but he has just nine receptions for 60 yards and one score across the past four games.

Quiet in blowout
Washington caught two of four targets for 19 yards during Sunday's 30-12 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Washington was unable to get in a groove with either Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) or backup C.J. Beathard, finishing below 20 receiving yards for the second straight game. Tim Jones and Elijah Cooks were similarly involved Sunday, but Calvin Ridley and Evan Engram are likely to remain the only notable producers in Jacksonville's passing game due to Christian Kirk (groin) being on injured reserve.

Just 12 yards in loss
Washington caught four of six targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 23-7 loss to Baltimore.
Analysis: The rookie sixth-round pick tied for third on the team in targets but didn't have any production of substance with a long reception of six yards. Washington played 45 percent of Jacksonville's offensive snaps and worked as the No. 3 wideout, and an increased role could be in store depending on the severity of Zay Jones' hamstring injury.

Catches another touchdown
Washington caught two of three targets for 27 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-27 loss to Cleveland.
Analysis: The 21-year-old secured the second touchdown of his career with a 19-yard reception in the fourth quarter, but he otherwise wasn't significantly involved in the passing game on a day when Trevor Lawrence attempted 50 passes. Washington played 47 of 76 offensive snaps as Jacksonville's No. 3 wideout and should remain in that role going forward with Christian Kirk (groin) on injured reserve.

Busts out after Kirk injury
Washington caught all six of his targets for 61 yards and a touchdown during Monday's 34-31 loss to the Bengals. He also returned two kickoffs for 51 yards and one punt for no yards.
Analysis: Christian Kirk exited with a groin injury on Jacksonville's first drive, and Washington took advantage of the opportunity. The rookie sixth-round pick didn't have a catch and had played just 12 offensive snaps in his three prior appearances this season, but he played 59 percent of the offensive snaps Monday and was second on the team in receptions. The specifics of Kirk's injury aren't yet known, but if he misses more time Washington will likely serve as the Jags' No. 3 wide receiver behind…read more

Activated for Week 11
The Jaguars activated Washington (knee) from injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: Washington hurt his knee against the Falcons in Week 4 and was placed on IR soon thereafter. That Week 4 contest has been his only game action of the season, and he logged just one offensive snap and one special-teams snap before getting hurt. Washington doesn't figure to see much action as a receiver upon his return, though he could be immediately featured as a kick and/or punt returner with Jamal Agnew (shoulder) landing on IR on Saturday.

Returns to practice
Washington (knee) logged a limited practice Wednesday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Washington was designated to return from IR earlier Wednesday, so a slow start for his first practice was likely expected. However, he'll probably need to ramp up his activity Thursday and Friday to suit up Sunday against the Titans.

Getting closer to return
Washington (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
Analysis: Washington will now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before he needs to be moved to the 53-man roster. If he can prove himself ready to play, he can suit up as soon as Sunday against the Titans. With Jamal Agnew (shoulder) and Zay Jones (knee) statuses in question for Week 11, Washington could have a role in the offense and at least regain return duties on special teams if he is active for the matchup.

Moved to IR
The Jaguars placed Washington (knee) on injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: Washington had already been ruled out for Sunday's contest against Buffalo due to a right knee injury, and he'll now need to sit out at least four games before he's able to get back on the field. The rookie wideout saw just one offensive snap and one special-teams snap in his NFL debut Week 4 versus Atlanta.

Out for Week 5
Washington (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bills.
Analysis: Washington was a healthy scratch for Jacksonville's first three games of the season, and he injured his right knee in his NFL debut Week 4. The rookie's next chance to play will come Week 6 versus the Colts, though he could be a healthy inactive again if Jamal Agnew (quadriceps) is back on the field at that time.

Logs DNP
Washington (knee) was a nonparticipant during practice Wednesday, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.
Analysis: Washington still hasn't recovered from the injury suffered in Sunday's win over the Falcons. The rookie receiver had been a healthy scratch in the team's previous three games, but he was filling in for Jamal Agnew, who was out with a quadriceps injury. Even if Washington returns to full health in time for Jacksonville's Week 5 matchup with Buffalo, he could find himself inactive again if Agnew can play.

Expected to miss time
Washington (knee) is unlikely to play Week 5 against the Bills, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.
Analysis: Washington suffered the injury in Sunday's win over the Falcons, which was the sixth-round rookie's NFL debut, as he filled in for Jamal Agnew (quad), who was inactive. It's unclear if Washington is in danger of missing time beyond that, but Agnew is expected to return for Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the Bills in London.

Iffy to return due to knee injury
Washington suffered a right knee injury in Sunday's game against the Falcons and is questionable to return, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Washington, a rookie sixth-round pick out of Penn State, was active Sunday for the first time in his NFL career because the Jaguars are without two receivers in Zay Jones (knee) and Jamal Agnew (quad). The 21-year-old didn't draw a target and returned one punt for five yards before exiting with the injury. Christian Kirk is expected to handle punt-return duties if Washington is unable to check back into the contest.

Won't play Sunday
Washington (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Colts.
Analysis: Parker was recently the subject of trade rumors with the depth Jacksonville has at receiver after getting selected in the sixth round of the 2023 Draft. Although he remains on the team, he'll be sidelined for Week 1. His next chance to suit up will be Week 2 against the Chiefs.

Never on trading block
Jacksonville's general manager Trent Baalke indicated Thursday that "(Parker) was never on the trade block. We were never actively shopping him," John Shipley of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Baalke later admitted a few teams did reach out about Washington's status, although no offers were made that moved the needle. The Jaguars are deep at receiver heading into the season, which leaves the team's sixth-round pick relatively buried on the depth chart. He will have plenty of time to continue acclimating to the playbook going forward, but it remains to be seen how big of a role, if any, he will have when the season kicks off.

Finds end zone with lone catch
Washington recorded one reception on two targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 25-7 preseason win over the Lions. He added one rush for minus-1 yard, returned two kickoffs for 46 yards and ran back three punts for 21 yards.
Analysis: Washington was on the field to start the game and was targeted on the first pass attempt from C.J. Beathard. His more impactful effort came just before halftime, when he caught a short pass to the left prior to shedding a tackle and turning upfield for a 15-yard score. Washington also handled punt returns, which could be his primary contribution to begin the regular season.
