Video: Do Not Get Distracted By The Wrong Adds On The Week 9 Waiver Wire
Mike Washington Jr. did get the start out of Ashen Genty. He got 25 rushes. He played 63% of the snaps... he's been quite bad. Um so he's 41st at a 42nd in fantasy points per touch amongst running backs. He is bottom five in rushing yards over expectation.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Poor efficiency (41st-42nd PPR per touch) limits upside despite Week 8 start

Mike Washington Jr. got the start over Ashton Genty with 25 rushes and 63% snap share but only 20% on long-down-and-distance and missed the short-yardage touchdown (Kurt Cousins scored instead). He ranks 41st-42nd in fantasy points per touch among running backs and is bottom-five in rushing yards over expectation. While he needs to be rostered, Ashton Genty's benching appears to be a quiet disciplining rather than a permanent role change, creating uncertainty about Washington's long-term role. Antonio Williams questions whether to start him if Genty remains active and won't rank him ahead of Genty despite Genty's unclear role.
