Parker Washington's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Sports Illustrated's John Shipley writes that he won't leave Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington off any roster projections moving forward after he had a good offseason from what the media observed during offseason organized team activities. Washington only had 16 receptions on 21 targets for 132 yards and two touchdowns in nine games (one start) in his rookie campaign in 2023 after the Jaguars selected him in the sixth round out of Penn State. Most of Washington's production came after the team lost Christian Kirk to a season-ending injury in the second half of the year. He's a name to keep an eye on, but as long as Kirk, rookie first-rounder Brian Thomas and Gabe Davis stay healthy, it's hard to envision Washington having a role begin enough to warrant a roster spot in standard 12-team fantasy leagues.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington is battling for a roster spot after the team brought in Brian Thomas Jr. Gabe Davis, and Devin Duvernay this offseason. Along with Christian Kirk, those three players are locks to make the final 53-man roster. Jacksonville began organized team activities on Monday, and Washington was a standout performer, according to John Shipley on the Jaguar Report. "Washington made several impressive grabs throughout the day in both individual and team drills, and he also showed off the quickness and explosiveness that makes his game stand out," Shipley wrote. "After (Christian) Kirk, he was probably the best overall performer in the receiver room on Monday." The 2023 sixth-round pick posted 16 receptions for 132 yards and two touchdowns in his rookie campaign, and his special teams ability could help his chances to secure his spot on the active roster. Although he won't begin the 2024 season on the fantasy radar, he could be worth stashing in extra-deep formats.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver Parker Washington finished his first season in the NFL on Sunday with just one catch for an 11-yard gain in the 28-20 upset loss to the Tennessee Titans in the Week 18 regular season finale. In nine total games, the sixth-rounder from Penn State caught just 16 passes on 21 targets for 132 yards and two touchdowns. Washington played just once in the first 10 weeks of the season. He caught eight passes on nine targets for 88 yards and two touchdowns right after Christian Kirk suffered a core muscle injury that landed him on Injured Reserve. It looked like the 21-year-old would have a bigger role down the stretch, but he ended up with only eight catches on 14 targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in the final four contests. He should return as extra receiver depth for the Jags in 2024.
