Healthy scratch for Week 14 Milne (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Milne will register his third straight healthy scratch in Week 14. In four games before his inactive stretch, the rookie seventh-round pick caught six passes for 65 yards. However, now that Washington's wideout room is getting healthy, Milne is on the outside looking in.

Catches two targets Milne caught both of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 29-19 win over Tampa Bay.
Impact It was his third straight game with multiple targets and at least one reception, though Milne spoiled it by losing a fumble. He did play 27 percent of snaps on offense, appearing to have a leg up on Cam Sims (18 percent) and Dyami Brown (11 percent) for the No. 4 receiver role. Washington mostly seems pleased with the rookie seventh-round pick so far, but Milne is still behind Terry McLaurin, DeAndre Carter and Adam Humphries on the depth chart.

Gets four targets Milne caught two of four targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Packers.
Impact The rookie seventh-round pick played 40 percent of offensive snaps, splitting time with DeAndre Carter (54 percent) after Dyami Brown left with a knee injury in the first half. It was the third straight game in which Milne got double-digit snaps and at least one target, but he's still no higher than sixth or seventh on the depth chart if Washington can ever get its wideout group healthy. Curtis Samuel (groin) and Cam Sims (hamstring) already absent, the team was missing three of its top five WRs by the end of Sunday's loss. Milne's role for Week 8 at Denver largely depends on the health of those ahead of him.

Secures spot on initial roster Milne will make Washington's initial 53-man roster, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Milne was Washington's seventh-round pick out of BYU where he was Zach Wilson's top target in 2020. He caught 70 of 95 targets for 1,188 yards and eight touchdowns during his final collegiate season. The rookie will likely be the No. 7 wideout on the depth chart and will need to produce on special teams before he gets involved offensively.
