Washington had a strong practice Sunday, the Boston Herald reports.
NESN.com described the effort as Washington's "best practice of camp," with the wideout making five catches during team drills Sunday. After missing practice time earlier this month, Washington suited up for the Patriots' preseason opener this past Thursday, but did not have a ball thrown in his direction. Washington is battling the likes of Aaron Dobson, Keshawn Martin, DeAndre Carter, Chris Harper and Devin Lucien for depth slotting on the Patriots' wideout depth chart, with Julian Edelman, Danny Amendola, Chris Hogan and Malcolm Mitchell widely considered roster locks.
