Nate Washington finds endzone to salvage fantasy day

Kevin Hoffman-US PRESSWIRE

Nate Washington scored the game-winning touchdown in an otherwise quiet game. We break down the fantasy implications.

Tennessee Titans WR Nate Washington hauled in six catches for 43 yards and a TD against the Buffalo Bills in Week 7. Washington led the team with eight targets, but was relatively quiet as the Titans used the run game to grind down Buffalo's D.

His stats got much better at the end of the game, as Matt Hasselbeck found him in the endzone with 1:03 left to defeat the Bills 34-33.

Fantasy Impact: Washington has been one of Hasselbeck's most targeted receivers during the veteran QB's stint, but it hasn't really translated into top fantasy production. His 7.2 yards per reception is a season-low, and the TD is only his third of the year.

Washington's production should tick up when Jake Locker returns against the Colts next week, but he remains a WR3 at best in fantasy.
