Activated from COVID-19 list Washington (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Impact Washington was forced to miss Monday's loss to the Dolphins while in the health and safety protocols, though he should be poised to return for Sunday's matchup against Carolina. He has played nearly exclusively on special teams this season and has picked up only four carries and two receptions across 12 games as a result.

Impact Though he's listed as a running back, Washington makes his biggest for the Saints as a core member of their special-teams units, so his absence won't mean much from a fantasy standpoint. He was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday and should have decent odds of getting cleared for the Saints' Week 17 game against the Panthers.
DECEMBER 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Placed on reserve/COVID-19 list Washington was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, per the team's official site.
Impact Washington joins a growing list of Saints players on the COVID-19 list ahead of Monday's matchup against Miami. If there's any good news for New Orleans, it's that none of the four running backs listed ahead of Washington on the depth chart is currently slated to miss the contest. As such, the impact of his potential absence would primarily be felt on special teams.
DECEMBER 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
No offensive snaps despite injuries Washington did not log an offensive snap during Thursday's 31-6 loss to Buffalo.
Impact Considering New Orleans was down both Alvin Kamara (knee) and Mark Ingram (knee), it's clear that New Orleans doesn't view Washington as much more than a special-teams contributor.

Saints RB depth chart: Tony Jones Jr., Dwayne Washington to lead New Orleans backfield on Thanksgiving Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram are both expected to be out for the Saints' Thanksgiving night game against the Bills.
NOVEMBER 25, 2021 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM
Two touches in Kamara's absence Washington rushed twice for eight yards during Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Titans.
Impact With Alvin Kamara (knee) sidelined, Mark Ingram commanded the vast majority of work out of the backfield while Washington was only a change-of-pace option who barely saw the field on offense. Even if Kamara remains sidelined in Week 11, Washington won't be worthy of fantasy consideration.
NOVEMBER 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
No offensive snaps Washington did not log an offensive snap during Sunday's 27-25 loss to Atlanta.
Impact With Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram locked in atop the depth chart, Washington was only needed for reps on special teams, where he returned two kickoffs for a combined 39 yards.

Logs full practice Washington (neck) practiced in full Thursday.
Impact Washington was limited in practice Wednesday but was able to give it a full go on Thursday. He hasn't seen the field since Week 5 against The Football Team where he was injured on a helmet-to-helmet hit while on punt coverage. With the recent addition of Mark Ingram, it is likely Washington's role will stay with special teams if he suits up Sunday against the Falcons.
