STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Washington's target share rises again with first TD; red-zone usage and 71% snaps support role.

Washington caught 3 of 5 targets for 27 yards and a touchdown (his second-half score on a 21-yard catch), with 3 of 5 targets coming in the second half and only 2 catches for 6 yards on 2 targets in the first half. Compared to Week 3 (4 targets, 3 rec, 67 yards, 0 TD), his target share ticked up again, and his first touchdown in this tracked stretch offsets lower yardage. He maintains a 71% snap share in line with his recent run and was targeted multiple times in the red zone (three end-zone targets), with back-to-back games at 50% route participation, signaling a gradually expanding role.
