Washington is listed ahead of Jalen Richard (arm) on Oakland's initial regular-season depth chart.
Although Washington is technically only listed third, so-called No. 2 running back Taiwan Jones is essentially just a special teamer, according to the Bay Area News Group. With Jones unlikely to get many offensive snaps outside of an emergency scenario, Washington enters the season as the clear handcuff for Latavius Murray, with the rookie's immediate role potentially including a good chunk of the passing-down snaps. If healthy, Richard could also be in the mix for backup work.
