Mike Washington Jr. Visits With Falcons

Arkansas running back Mike Washington Jr. had a top-30 visit with the Atlanta Falcons on Friday, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Washington also has visits in the next two weeks lined up with the Tampa Buccaneers, Green Bay Packers, and Seattle Seahawks. The 6-foot-1, 223-pounder ran an eye-opening 4.33-second 40-yard dash at the scouting combine in late February and is projected to be a Day 2 pick in this month's NFL draft. The Falcons already have stud RB Bijan Robinson, and although they lost highly productive backup Tyler Allgeier to free agency, they signed Brian Robinson Jr. as their RB2 this offseason. Washington would likely open his NFL career as the RB3 in Atlanta. In his lone season with the Razorbacks in 2025, Washington had 1,070 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on 167 carries, adding 28 catches for 226 yards and another score in 12 games played. He also had eight rushing touchdowns on 157 carries in 12 games in 2024 with New Mexico State after spending three seasons at Buffalo.
