Dwayne Washington Fantasy

Denver Broncos running back Dwayne Washington (illness) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. He was listed as questionable after being a late addition to the injury report on Friday. Washington has played just one snap on offense this season, spending most of his time on special teams. As a result, his absence in Week 12 will have no fantasy implications.

According to ESPN's Field Yates, free-agent running back Dwayne Washington agreed to a contract with the Broncos on Wednesday. The 2016 seventh-round pick has appeared in 83 games during his career, totaling 592 yards and a touchdown off 168 carries. He played for Sean Payton for a few years in New Orleans, so there's a connection. But with Javonte Williams (knee) and Samaje Perine in the equation, Washington isn't forecasted to be a productive fantasy option in 2023-24, assuming he's in uniform come Week 1.

New Orleans Saints running backs Dwayne Washington (illness) and Eno Benjamin are both inactive on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. The Saints claimed Benjamin off waivers from the Houston Texans on Wednesday, but he's not ready to be active on game day yet. Mark Ingram II (knee) is out for the season, so with both Washington and Benjamin not playing on Sunday, veteran David Johnson is slated to serve as Alvin Kamara's primary backup against the Falcons. Johnson won't have any standalone fantasy value in just his second game of the season. He had one carry for minus-four yards and caught a pass for 11 yards in Week 11. Johnson hasn't scored a touchdown since 2020 with the Texans.
