Big Cat Country on Parker Washington
From the article
He led the Jaguars across the board with 72 targets, 48 receptions, and 747 receiving yards after their Week 8 bye...Washington ranked second among 113 wide receivers in yards per route run (2.69) and PFF receiving grade (90.8)...the drumbeat has grown louder and louder that 'PDub' is the team's top receiver.
STACKED’s take
Washington's WR9-caliber efficiency post-bye supports volume growth as Jaguars' top receiver.
Washington finally emerged as an offensive contributor in 2025 after being impressive in every offseason of his career. Post-Week 8 bye through playoffs (10-game sample), he led the Jaguars with 72 targets, 48 receptions, and 747 receiving yards, averaging 7.2 targets, 4.8 catches, 74.7 yards, 0.5 touchdowns, and 15.8 PPR fantasy points per game—matching Davante Adams' WR9 finish (15.9 PPR per game). Over that stretch, Washington ranked second among 113 wide receivers in yards per route run (2.69) and PFF receiving grade (90.8), top-12 in first downs per route run (0.12), contested catch rate (75%), and passer rating when targeted (124.3). Despite ranking 101st in route rate (92.1%), the source views this as a bet worth making given his improved year-over-year trajectory, chemistry with Trevor Lawrence, and the drumbeat that he's the team's top receiver. Washington's 5'10", 204 lbs frame may inhibit ultra-productivity like Cooper Kupp or Chris Godwin under Liam Coen, but the source expects volume growth.
