• Carlos Washington: Reverts to practice squad

  Rotowire Oct 12, 2026

  Washington reverted to the practice squad with the Dolphins on Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log. Washington was elevated to the active roster prior to Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Bengals. The running back failed to record any stats in the contest while playing nine snaps on offense and three with the special-teams unit. Ollie Gordon (43) led the way in the backfield in offensive snaps, and if Washington is elevated again at any point this season, he'll likely operate in a similar depth role.

• Dolphins' Carlos Washington: Elevated for Week 5

  Rotowire Oct 10, 2026

  The Dolphins elevated Washington from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday. Washington's promotion to the active roster gives the Dolphins backfield insurance in case Jaylen Wright (foot) is unable to play against the Bengals on Sunday. If Wright is ruled out, then Washington and recent waiver claim Kaytron Allen would operate in rotational roles behind Ollie Gordon.

• Carlos Washington: Back on Dolphins' practice squad

  Rotowire Oct 7, 2026

  The Dolphins signed Washington to the practice squad Wednesday. Washington was signed to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 15-10 loss to Minnesota. With De'Von Achane (knee) out for the remainder of the 2026 campaign, Washington could see more action with the Dolphins moving forward, though he likely won't have much of a role behind Ollie Gordon and Jaylen Wright.

• Carlos Washington: Cut loose by Miami

  Rotowire Oct 5, 2026

  Washington was waived by the Dolphins on Monday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Washington was signed to the active roster with Miami on Saturday after opening the season as a member of the team's practice squad. The running back didn't see any action in the Dolphins' 15-10 loss to Minnesota on Sunday, and he will now be placed on waivers. If Washington goes unclaimed, there's a good chance that he returns to Miami's practice squad.

• Carlos Washington: Waived by Miami

  Rotowire Aug 30, 2026

  Washington was waived by the Dolphins on Sunday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports. The running back signed with Miami in May with a chance to compete for the No. 4 running back spot behind De'Von Achane, Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon, but he averaged just 2.3 yards per carry across 16 preseason touches. Washington saw action in one regular-season game in each of the last two seasons with Atlanta, though he has yet to receive a regular-season carry.

• Dolphins' Carlos Washington: Inks deal with Dolphins

  Rotowire May 21, 2026

  Washington signed with the Dolphins on Thursday. Washington played exactly one game in each of the last two seasons with the Falcons, and he stuck to special teams in both instances. The Southeastern Louisiana product is likely vying for the No. 4 running back role behind De'Von Achane, Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon.

• Carlos Washington: Reverts to practice squad

  Rotowire Sep 8, 2025

  Washington reverted to Atlanta's practice squad Monday. Washington didn't record any stats across the 10 snaps he played on special teams during Sunday's loss versus the Buccaneers. The 2023 undrafted free agent will now await his next opportunity to be called up to the active roster.

• Falcons' Carlos Washington: Plays exclusively on special teams

  Rotowire Sep 8, 2025

  Washington played 10 special-teams snaps during Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Buccaneers. Undrafted rookie Nathan Carter was a healthy inactive, so Washington was elevated from the practice squad and served as the No. 3 running back behind Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier. The Robinson-Allgeier duo is one of the best in the NFL, so it's going to be hard for Washington or Carter to carve out anything more than an emergency depth role in 2025.

  The Falcons waived Washington on Tuesday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports.

• Falcons' Carlos Washington: Not expected to play this week

  Rotowire Aug 18, 2025

  Washington (hamstring) is not expected to play in Atlanta's preseason finale against Dallas on Friday, D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Washington has yet to play this preseason, so it appears as if he'll go the entire exhibition slate without recording a snap. He appeared in just one regular-season contest last season, logging 11 snaps on special teams.

• Falcons' Carlos Washington: Inactive for Week 16

  Rotowire Dec 22, 2024

  Washington (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants. The Falcons signed Washington off the practice squad to the active roster Dec. 11 due to rookie running back Jase McClellan (knee) being placed on injured reserve. However, Washington will not play in Sunday's game as the Falcons roll with a three-man backfield of Bijan Robinson, Tyler Allgeier and Avery Williams. McClellan's next opportunity to play will be Week 17 against the Commanders on Sunday, Dec. 29.

• Carlos Washington: Gets practice squad deal

  Rotowire Aug 29, 2024

  Washington signed with the Falcons' practice squad on Wednesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports. Washington spent last season on the team's practice squad, but he never made it to the active roster. Despite starting multiple preseason games, the Southeastern Louisiana product was unable to secure a 53-man roster spot out of training camp and will once again be a member of the practice squad.

• Carlos Washington: Let go by Atlanta

  Rotowire Aug 27, 2024

  Washington was waived by the Falcons on Tuesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports. Washington signed a reserve/future contract with Atlanta in January and turned 29 carries into 71 yards and a touchdown while also adding two catches for 20 yards during the preseason. Although he didn't make the initial 53-man roster, it's possible that the running back sticks around with the Falcons' practice squad to open 2024 if he clears waivers.

• Falcons' Carlos Washington: Headed for roster spot?

  Rotowire Aug 17, 2024

  Washington started Saturday's 13-12 preseason loss at Baltimore and took nine carries for 39 yards. With Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier rested, Washington was busy for much of the first half while working ahead of rookie sixth-round pick Jase McClellan for a second straight week. Adnan Ikic of The Falcoholic believes Washington, a 2023 UDFA, has the inside track to the No. 3 RB job, but McClellan did come on strong at the end of Saturday's game to finish with an 11-55-1 rushing line (scoring his TD in the final minute). Either way, the winner of the battle isn't likely to get Week 1 touches unless Robinson or Allgeier gets injured or Atlanta's game ends up being a blowout.

• Falcons' Carlos Washington: Signs reserve/future deal with ATL

  Rotowire Jan 8, 2024

  The Falcons signed Washington to a reserve/future contract Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Atlanta signed Washington as an undrafted free agent ahead of the 2023 campaign, and the Southeastern Louisiana product ended up on Falcons' practice squad after being unable to make the initial 53-man roster. However, he impressed the organization enough to land a reserve/future contract after Atlanta's season ended Sunday. Washington will thus get a chance to compete for a roster spot next season.
