According to Katherine Terrell, the Saints are placing RB Dwayne Washington on the injured reserve. 

Washington, 28, is a former seventh-round pick of the Lions back in 2016. He spent two years in Detroit before being waived as they cut their roster down to 53 players coming out of the preseason.

Washington later signed on to the Saints’ practice squad at the start of the 2018 regular season. He was promoted to their active roster and eventually managed to make the 53-man roster. The Saints have re-signed Washington to three consecutive one-year deals. 

In 2022, Washington appeared in 12 games and recorded 11 rushing attempts for 38 yards (3.5 YPC), one reception for seven yards, and 69 yards as a kickoff return specialist.
