Availability
Malik Washington has barely been flex-viable despite seeing a large portion of the Miami passing attack through two games. Washington is the WR51 in fantasy points per game despite seeing a 26% target share with 1.68 YPRR, four deep targets, zero red zone targets, and a 23.3% first-read share. Sit Washington this week against a secondary that has allowed the fourth-fewest yards per target and the second-fewest fantasy points per opportunity to wide receivers.
The diminutive Malik Washington had 3-53-0 on eight targets in Week 1, then had 4-43-0 on five targets in Week 2, along with one rushing attempt for four yards.
With Caleb Douglas in a walking boot after the Dolphins' Week 2 loss to the 49ers due to an ankle injury, Washington is expected to be Miami's No. 1 receiver in Week 3. But the Dolphins have one of the league's more punchless passing games, and Miami has a tough Week 3 matchup against a strong Kansas City pass defense.
Washington should be considered only in deep leagues.
