Impact Washington put together another great performance Saturday, setting a season-high with 135 rushing yards and scoring twice in his second straight game.

Shines in double OT win Washington logged 31 rushes for 115 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in 3 of 4 targets for 11 yards during Saturday's 48-45 overtime win over Southern Methodist.

Impact In a game where the Bears passed the ball 50 times, the team still managed to give Washington a career-high 31 carries. He did well with that massive workload, gaining over 100 yards and scoring twice, including a touchdown in the first overtime. The elite play of quarterback Sawyer Robertson so far is not necessarily great for Washington's ceiling especially since he is not a high-volume pass catcher, but the Bears have still made it a priority to give Washington the ball and that will continue once conference play begins.

54 yards in opener Washington notched 14 rushes for 54 yards and gathered in 2 of 4 targets for two yards during Friday's 38-24 defeat to Auburn.

Impact Washington had a slightly disappointing start to the season Friday as he gained just 56 total yards and did not find the end zone versus Auburn. However, it was clear that he was easily the number one option out of the backfield as he received 14 carries, and he was also targeted four times through the air. Quarterback Sawyer Robertson attempted 48 passes in the opener, and if anything close to that becomes the norm for the Bears, Washington could find himself not living up to his lofty expectations.

Bottled up in loss Washington recorded five rushes for 24 yards and gathered in 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Tuesday's 44-31 defeat versus LSU.

Impact Washington had a breakout year in 2024 as a redshirt freshman, running for 1,028 yards and 12 touchdowns while reeling in 22 catches for 217 yards and a score. However, he was shut down against the Tigers and only logged five carries, his fewest since the first two games of the season in which he didn't play. Washington figures to be the Bears' lead tailback in 2025.

Romps for 192 yards Washington accrued 28 rushes for 192 yards and two touchdowns and caught their only target for 14 yards during Saturday's 45-17 win over Kansas.

Impact Few running backs in the FBS shared Washington's run of production over the final month of the season. Over the final four games, he accrued 624 rushing yards snd nine touchdowns on the ground, accompanied by 96 receiving yards and one touchdown through the air. He'll be a focal point of Baylor's offense next year if he stays with the program, but his prospects are bright regardless of where he ends up.

Back for second half Washington (undisclosed) is on the field with the offense to begin the second half, Zach Smith of the Waco Tribune reports.

Heads to locker room Washington is heading back to the locker room after suffering an apparent injury in the second quarter against Kansas, Zach Smith of the Waco Tribune reports.

Impact Washington departed back to the locker room just before halftime, though the injury is currently not clear. He's had an effective half on the ground, totaling 11 carries for 63 yards. Look for Dawson Pendergrass to see an uptick in touches if Washington is unable to return for the second half.

Logs another stellar game Washington compiled 28 rushes for 113 yards and caught their only target for one yard during Saturday's 20-10 win against Houston.

Massive four-touchdown day in win Washington had 26 rushes for 196 yards and four touchdowns and hauled in 2 of 3 targets for 22 yards during Saturday's 37-34 victory versus TCU.

Impact Last week was Dawson Pendergrass' turn for a huge game, but Washington one-upped him with almost 200 yards on the ground and four touchdowns. The Bears rank 36th in the country with 1,665 rushing yards, but the individual performances of both backs give their seasonal and DFS stocks a huge boost.

Cedes production in win Washington tallied 17 rushes for 78 yards during Saturday's 38-28 victory versus Oklahoma State.

Impact Although Washington gained 78 yards on the ground, he ended the day behind Dawson Pendergrass, who surpassed the century mark in the win. The backfield has been in a timeshare all year, and while it looked like Washington was taking the lead after last week's total, the Bears showed they have equal faith in Pendergrass. Baylor's offensive scheme should allow both to continue fantasy-relevant production.

Romps for two scores in victory Washington tallied 10 rushes for 116 yards and two touchdowns and reeled in 3 of 4 targets for 24 yards during Saturday's 59-35 victory over Texas Tech.

Impact Washington strengthened his hold on the starting job after posting another excellent result, and it seems clear that the upstart freshman will be the top option in the backfield moving forward. Dawson Pendergrass shared the load with seven touches but only accrued 36 yards.
