Gets practice squad deal Washington signed with the Falcons' practice squad on Wednesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.

Impact Washington spent last season on the team's practice squad, but he never made it to the active roster. Despite starting multiple preseason games, the Southeastern Louisiana product was unable to secure a main-roster spot out of training camp and will once again be a member of the practice squad.

Let go by Atlanta Washington was waived by the Falcons on Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official website reports.

Impact Washington signed a reserve/future contract with Atlanta in January, turning 29 carries in 71 yards and a touchdown on the ground while also adding two catches for 20 yards during the preseason. Although he didn't make the initial 53-man roster, it's possible that the running back sticks around with the Falcons' practice squad to open 2024 if he clears waivers.

Starts again Washington recorded four rushes for seven yards in Friday's 31-0 preseason win over the Jaguars. He added one reception on one target for seven yards.

Impact It wasn't an impressive stat line for Washington, but he was again the first running back on the field with neither Bijan Robinson nor Tyler Allgeier suiting up. Washington joined the Falcons as an undrafted free agent following the 2023 season and spent last year on the team's practice squad. Heading into 2024, he looks to be the favorite for the third spot on the depth chart.

Headed for roster spot? Washington started Saturday's 13-12 preseason loss at Baltimore and took nine carries for 39 yards.

Impact With Bijan Robinson and Tyller Algeier rested, Washington was busy for much of the first half while working ahead of rookie sixth-round pick Jase McClellan for a second straight week. Adnan Ikic of The Falcoholic believes Washington, a 2023 UDFA, has the inside track to the No. 3 RB job, but McClellan did come on strong at the end of Saturday's game to finish with an 11-51-1 rushing line (scoring his TD in the final minute). Either way, the winner of the battle isn't likely to get Week 1 touches unless Robinson or Allgeier gets injured or Atlanta's game ends up being a blowout.
