Washington (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills.
EDGE Analysis
Washington will be in street clothes for the second straight contest with all four of Miami's other running backs (Myles Gaskin, Salvon Ahmed, Matt Breida and Patrick Laird) at full strength. After being acquired from the Chiefs in early November, Washington didn't make much of an impact in three games he played with the Dolphins this season, carrying 28 times for 86 yards (3.1 average) to go with four receptions for 28 yards on nine targets.

Washington (coach's decision) is inactive for Saturday's game against the Raiders.
EDGE Analysis
Myles Gaskin will return to the lineup this week after a stint on the reserve/COVID-19 list. He and Salvon Ahmed figure to handle most of the backfield work in Saturday's crucial AFC clash; Matt Brieda and Patrick Laird should rotate in occasionally as well.

Washington did not see the field during Sunday's 22-12 win over New England.
EDGE Analysis
Washington saw his role on offense vanish following the return of both Salvon Ahmed and Matt Breida to the lineup Sunday, as he worked as Miami's reserve No. 4 back. Even if Myles Gaskin (undisclosed) misses more time on the COVID-19 list, it looks like Washington won't be very involved Week 16.

Washington will be joined by Salvon Ahmed and Matt Breida in Miami's Week 15 backfield against the Patriots, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Patrick Laird is also on hand, but with the team's pass-catchers banged up Sunday, the Dolphins will need all they can get from the team's running backs. Look for a committee/hot hand approach to dictate the team's carries versus New England.

Washington rushed 13 times for 35 yards and caught two of four targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 33-27 loss to Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
Washington was the workhorse on the ground with Myles Gaskin and Matt Breida both on the reserve/COVID-19 list and Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) inactive. He didn't do much with the opportunity, however, averaging just 2.7 yards per carry against his former team. Washington will likely retain the lead role in Week 15 against the Patriots if none of the three aforementioned running backs are ready to return, but he'll be hard to trust after this disappointing showing.

Washington is likely to start after Myles Gaskin was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Myles Gaskin and Matt Breida both on the reserve/COVID-19 list along with Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) being ruled out Friday, Washington will essentially be forced into a prime spot against his former team. The 27-year-old saw a decent amount of work two weeks ago with the Dolphins' running-back depth in shambles, tallying 15 total touches for 60 yards, but he promptly was ruled out the following week after injuring his hamstring. The fifth-year back has carried the ball more than 10 times in a game just eight times in his career, but he was relatively prolific in his stint as the starter toward the end of last season with the Raiders, accumulating 238 total yards across 50 touches during a two-game stretch. It's worth noting both Patrick Laird and Lynn Bowden figure to sap away some of Washington's receiving opportunities so it's unlikely the back will have a full starter's workload against his former team Sunday.

Washington (hamstring) isn't listed on Miami's final injury report ahead of Sunday's game against Kansas City, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Washington is projected to back up Myles Gaskin against the vulnerable Chiefs run defense with Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) ruled out. Matt Breida could also factor into Miami's backfield plans but will need to be removed from the reserve/COVID-19 list by 4 p.m. Saturday in order to be eligible to play.

Washington (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Adam H. Beasley of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Washington couldn't suit up against the Bengals last weekend, but he could have a fair shot at retaking the field versus the Chiefs in Week 14. If Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) and Matt Breida (illness) both miss more time, a healthy Washington could work as the No. 2 option behind Myles Gaskin (knee).

Washington (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
Washington will be one three Dolphins running backs sidelined for Week 13 with Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) also inactive and Matt Brieda (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Fortunately for Miami, it will get some reinforcement at the position in the form of Myles Gaskin (knee), who was activated from injured reserve after practicing for the second week in a row. Considering Gaskin had been a three-down back for Miami prior to suffering his injury Week 8, he'll likely operate as the team's top option moving forward. That will likely result in the likes of Washington, Ahmed and Breida all being limited to complementary roles once they all overcome their respective health concerns.

Washington (hamstring) will be listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Brian Flores said that both Washington and Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) are doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bengals, and Matt Breida missed Friday's practice with an illness. Unless Myles Gaskin (knee) can come off IR in time, the Dolphins could be forced to run with Patrick Laird and Lynn Bowden out of the backfield.
