The Pittsburgh Steelers will not see former WR James Washington when they take on the Atlanta Falcons in Week 1, as Atlanta has released Washington. Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 reported the news via the NFL transaction log.

Washington hasn’t played in the NFL since appearing in just two games with the Dallas Cowboys in 2022. Washington saw three targets through Atlanta’s first two preseason games, but didn’t record a reception.
It may be the end of the line for Washington as he looks to continue his NFL career.
