Ravens' Broderick Washington: Undergoes surgery on Achilles
Rotowire
Head coach John Harbaugh told reporters Monday that Washington successfully underwent Achilles tendon surgery, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Washington landed on injured reserve in late September due to what was initially listed as an ankle injury, but it's an Achilles injury that the 2020 fifth-rounder is rehabbing from. The injury isn't a tear, and while a timetable for his recovery hasn't been shared by the Ravens, Harbaugh relayed that a return for Washington is not "imminent." John Jenkins will continue to work in an elevated role on the defensive line for as long as Washington is sidelined.

Ravens' Broderick Washington: Starts five games in 2024
Rotowire
Washington racked up 21 tackles (nine solo), including 2.0 sacks, across 15 regular-season appearances (five starts) with Baltimore in 2024. He also had two passes defensed and one forced fumble.
Washington has two years remaining on his deal with the Ravens, though the team has a potential 'out' for only $1.85 million after the 2025 season. The 2020 fifth-round pick doesn't boast the production to be be considered a reliable fantasy asset in IDP formats, but he has a fair path to reprising a starting role on defense for the 2025 campaign.
