Much was expected of James Washington heading into his second season. I don’t suppose that many predicted he would start producing in the second half of the year, working with Devlin Hodges. Not that he didn’t also put up some numbers while Mason Rudolph was still at quarterback as well.
One thing that I never expected was that Washington would be the Pittsburgh Steelers’ leading receiver—at any point of the year. But with four games remaining, that is exactly what he is. Following the first 100-yard game of his career—111 yards on four receptions with a 30-yard touchdown on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns—he now has 578 receiving yards on the season.
