Mike Washington vs. SEA: Limited role in a low-scoring home spot
Healthy heading into this matchup, Washington operates as a complementary option behind Ashton Jeanty in the Raiders backfield. Although Washington logged 31 carries across his last two games, he managed just 2.6 yards per attempt with zero targets, failing to build momentum or earn passing-down trust. His roster rate briefly surged to 60% after a heavy-volume outing, but it has since dropped back to 38% with only 3% of fantasy managers starting him.
As 6.5-point home underdogs against Seattle in a game projected to be low scoring, the likely negative game script severely caps an early-down back with minimal receiving involvement. Our weekly projection sits at 4.6 PPR points on roughly nine carries and 32 rushing yards, leaving him safely on the bench in standard leagues.

Outlook AJ Barner
AJ Barner at Las Vegas: Touchdown-dependent streamer with Darnold out
Barner enters Week 10 healthy as Seattle’s lead tight end ahead of Eric Saubert after scoring a rushing and receiving touchdown on Nov. 8. Still, his passing-game volume remains modest, totaling four catches for 30 yards on nine targets over his last two games. Worse, quarterback Sam Darnold and guard Quenton Nelson are both out for this road matchup in Las Vegas.
Our weekly projection lands near 9.4 PPR points on roughly three catches, 28 yards, and modest touchdown equity through the air or near the goal line. Although his roster and start rates ticked up to 14% and 7% this week, a low projected scoring total and backup quarterback play limit his appeal. Barner is strictly a touchdown-dependent deep-league option.
