Jaret Patterson - Makes team Patterson appears to have a spot on Washington's initial 53-man roster, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
Impact The undrafted rookie out of Buffalo is one of three running backs left on the roster after Peyton Barber was released Tuesday morning, though it is possible Washington re-signs Barber after cutdown day (and thus avoids guaranteeing his salary). Even if Barber is brought back, the willingness to risk losing him suggests Washington is comfortable with Patterson in the No. 3 role. The rookie likely won't match Barber's contributions as a blocker or coverage man on special teams, but Patterson could get some touches on kick returns and would also offer a more explosive element if Washington ever needed to replace an injured Antonio Gibson or J.D. McKissic.

Ryan Fitzpatrick - Week 1 starter, per report Fitzpatrick is slated to start at QB for Washington in Week 1 and beyond, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Impact Though the assignment hasn't been officially confirmed by the team, this is an expected outcome, considering the way things have played out during the team's preseason. The well-traveled veteran QB is in line to be backed up by Taylor Heinicke and Kyle Allen.

Kyle Allen - Struggled against Ravens Allen completed 10 of 22 passes for 100 yards in Saturday's preseason loss to Baltimore.
Impact The Ravens played a bunch of starters, while Washington had a long list of players they held out, including some key backups. Still, Allen struggled, leading Washington to just three points while playing the first six drives of the game. He's the third quarterback behind Ryan Fitzpatrick and Taylor Heinicke, with his roster fate depending on how many signal-callers the team decides to keep. Saturday's performance won't help if it was a tough decision beforehand, but the team may also be patient with Allen given that he suffered a severe ankle injury last year. Either way, Heinicke is next in line for starts if Fitzpatrick gets injured or benched.
