What happened: Parker Washington produced an elusive open-field run during Sunday's NFL Network broadcast of the regular-season matchup between Houston and Jacksonville. The play builds on his string of plays in London on Oct. 11, when he also scored a late go-ahead touchdown.

Why it matters: Washington's expanding role in 2026 has coincided with wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. holding a 47.3% snap share amid league-wide trade interest. Selected out of Penn State in the sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, Washington caught 58 passes for 847 yards and five touchdowns across 16 games in 2025, per ESPN, before opening his 2026 scoring account on Sept. 13.

What to watch: Monitor Washington's final target share and snap distribution following the conclusion of Sunday's matchup against Houston.
