Good to go for Week 13 Washington (concussion) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Impact Washington was able to end the week with consecutive full practices, and his lack of an injury designation indicates he has cleared the league's five-step concussion protocols.

Impact Washington was limited in Wednesday's practice, so it appears he is progressing through the league's five-step concussion protocols.

Dealing with concussion Washington (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Daniel Flick of SI.com reports.

Impact Washington is now dealing with a concussion following the Falcons' Week 12 bye, and Wednesday's limited session suggests he still has yet to clear the NFL's five-step protocol. The rookie wideout from Illinois has played almost exclusively on special teams this season, but he could be in for a larger offensive role in Sunday's matchup against the Chargers if he's able to pass through protocol, as KhaDarel Hodge (concussion) and Darnell Mooney (Achilles) are both dealing with injuries.

Heavy volume in debut Washington secured three of nine targets for 27 yards in the Falcons' 20-13 preseason loss to the Dolphins on Friday night. He also recovered a fumble.

Impact While he posted an inefficient line overall, Washington was the subject of plenty of attention from the Falcons' quarterbacks while garnering team-high reception and target totals. The rookie sixth-round pick was the beneficiary of so much opportunity thanks in large part to Drake London, Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud were all held out of action, but Washington should still get an opportunity to make his case for a roster spot during the Falcons' second exhibition game against the Ravens on Aug. 17.
