From the article

the running backs on the roster are a schematic fit for the heavy zone concepts being installed in the desert. The vision, one-cut decisiveness, tackle-breaking ability, alongside route running and soft hands as a receiver Jeanty has are a tailormade fit for Kubiak's run game which relies on patient runners who read blocks and burst through cutback lanes to gore opposing defenses. Washington can do much of the same, hence why the Raiders are excited about the 1-2 punch Jeanty and the rookie bring to the table.

Washington's vision and tackle-breaking fit Kubiak's zone-run scheme; part of 1-2 punch with Jeanty.

Washington is schematically fit for Kubiak's heavy zone-run concepts; he possesses the vision, one-cut decisiveness, tackle-breaking ability, route running, and soft hands as a receiver that align with Kubiak's run game which relies on patient runners who read blocks and burst through cutback lanes; the Raiders view the 1-2 punch of Jeanty and Washington as a complementary pairing.
