Washington is elusive and often makes defenders miss in 1-on-1 situations. Excellent footwork is a common theme for him.

Washington’s spin move is impressive. He times it well, it’s lighting quick, and overall it’s a very effective move he uses to break tackles.

Ball security seems to be a bit of an issue. Again, he doesn’t have the ball tucked away and it gets knocked out.

Washington might be a small running back, but he’s tough to bring down. This clip includes a broken tackle, a stiff arm, and then fighting for extra yards at the end.

Bill Musgrave loves to run screen plays, and Washington can contribute. Nice hands catch, turns up field and patiently runs behind his blockers for a big gain.
