Parker Washington Cleared to Play for Jaguars Despite Hamstring Concerns

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington has been cleared to play in Sunday's game against the Chargers, despite dealing with a hamstring issue that limited him in practice Thursday and Friday, and kept him out Wednesday. He carries no injury designation for the upcoming contest. Washington has seen increased involvement recently, being targeted at least seven times in each of Jacksonville's last three games. However, his usage could potentially dip if fellow wide receiver Brian Thomas (ankle), who is listed as questionable, makes his return to the lineup. This season, Washington has accumulated 28 receptions for 330 yards and two touchdowns on 51 targets, averaging 11.8 yards per reception. He signed a four-year, $4.03 million contract with the Jaguars in May 2023.
