Positive signalRole

Washington Jr. earned the lead role in Week 8 with 25 carries; now a weekly FLEX floor.

The source notes Washington has been the Raiders' more explosive back all season; head coach Klint Kubiak gave the rookie the reins in Week 8 when he rushed 25 times for 83 yards. Though inefficiency was explained by stuffed rush attempts inside the 10-yard-line, Washington is now at worst a weekly FLEX play, suggesting elevated role and opportunity going forward.
