Long score Monday Washington caught two of four targets for 80 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 23-17 loss to Washington.
Impact Washington broke a tackle following a medium-length reception and stretched it into a 50-yard touchdown toward the end of the second quarter. That play enabled him to finish atop Pittsburgh's receiving corps in yards despite catching only one other pass Monday. Although he had more than 40 receiving yards just once this season prior to Week 13, Washington's efficient outing now has his stock rising some ahead of Sunday's game in Buffalo.

Makes crucial grab against Ravens Washington brought in two of his three targets for 19 yards in Wednesday's 19-14 win over the Ravens.
Impact Washington recorded a contested catch on third down late in Wednesday's contest to help secure the win, but he had a muted role for the Steelers once again. The 2018 second-round pick has failed to top 20 yards in five of the last six contests. Washington also hasn't been targeted more than three times in any game since the team's Week 6 matchup.

Tallies two receptions in Week 10 Washington hauled in both of his targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 36-10 win over the Bengals.
Impact Washington reached the end zone in the Steelers' Week 9 win, and he once again was efficient this Sunday. The 2018 second-rounder was on the field for 28 of the team's 73 offensive snaps as the Steelers relied heavily on their passing attack Week 10. Although he's made the most of his targets over the past two weeks, Washington remains entrenched as the team's clear fourth wide receiver on the depth chart.

Finds end zone against Dallas Washington brought in one of his two targets for 17 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Cowboys.
Impact Washington failed to log a reception in either of the past two games, but he made the most of his two targets as he reached the end zone for the third time this year. The 24-year-old was on the field for just 19 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps Sunday, and his role has decreased recently despite his touchdown in Dallas.

Targeted once in Week 8 Washington, who was on the field for 10 of the Steelers' 53 offensive plays, failed to haul in his lone target in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Ravens.
Impact Although the Steelers passed the ball 32 times Sunday, Washington wasn't very involved against the stingy Ravens defense. The 24-year-old racked up 68 yards Week 6, but he's failed to record a reception since then while being targeted just twice over the past two games.

Steelers WR Diontae Johnson hopes injury woes are behind him
Pittsburgh wide receiver Diontae Johnson should be good to go when the unbeaten Steelers face AFC North rival BaltimoreOCTOBER 30, 2020 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Plays minimal role in win Washington, who was on the field for 18 of the Steelers' 79 offensive plays, failed to secure his only target in Sunday's 27-24 win over Tennessee.
Impact Washington recorded at least 20 receiving yards in each of the first five games of the season, including a season-high 68 yards Week 6. However, Diontae Johnson (ankle) returned to the field against the Titans and was targeted 15 times in the win before suffering an injury in the fourth quarter. While Washington was relatively productive earlier in the year with Johnson on the field, his potential is more limited with the receiving corps fully healthy. Washington will face a tough matchup Week 8 against the Ravens.

Re-emerges in win Washington recorded four receptions on seven targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Week 6 against the Browns.
Impact Washington emerged as the second receiver in the Steelers' offense in the absence of Diontae Johnson (back). His biggest play of the day came on a 28-yard touchdown pass to to put Pittsburgh up 24-0. In Week 5, Washington managed only three receptions for 25 yards, and it appeared as if he was losing his role in the offense due to the emergence of rookie Chase Claypool. However, if Johnson is unable to return to the field for the team's Week 7 contest against Tennessee, Washington should maintain a decent number of targets.
