STACKED’s take

Positive signalSleeper

Washington's 27% target share and seven targets per game support WR3 consideration.

Washington deserves more attention as a potential WR3 in deeper leagues; he has scored 11+ points in back-to-back games and is averaging seven targets per game. His versatility in Miami's offense creates multiple opportunities: he serves as an outlet for quarterback Malik Willis on boots and checkdowns, can separate from both slot and perimeter alignments, and plays a 'Deebo' role as an I-back with rushing attempts. Washington has at least one carry in each of his last three games and gets targets on fly sweeps and swing screens. He carries a 27% team target share. Lack of touchdowns (zero on season) lowers upside, but usage and deployment provide stable floor with upcoming schedule (CIN, BYE, @NYJ).
