Badet worked out for the Raiders on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
Analysis: The 27-year-old has recovered from the lower leg injury he suffered before the season, allowing him to try out for Las Vegas.

Badet was waived by the Falcons on Friday.
Analysis: Badet has been dealing with a lower leg injury prior to his release and it appears that injury is serious enough to keep the receiver out of commission for awhile, causing the Falcons to let him go.

Badet's chances of making a roster somewhere else are probably limited considering he will miss time with his injury.

Badet (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Lions, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Badet practiced fully Thursday and Friday, so there was never much concern about his availability for the Week 10 matchup, despite his questionable designation.

Nov 15, 2020 8:38 AM EST
Badet (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.
Analysis: Washington promoted Badet to the active roster for Week 10, after having elevated him from the practice squad as an extra player in each of the last two contests. If cleared to suit up, Badet could get the opportunity to draw his first target in the NFL.

Badet was promoted from Washington's practice squad to the active roster Tuesday.
Analysis: The 26-year-old was elevated from the practice squad as an extra player for each of the past two games, and he apparently showed enough to earn a longer look on the active roster.

Badet reverted to Washington's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: The 26-year-old wideout from Oklahoma made his NFL debut against the Cowboys on Sunday, fielding three offensive snaps but having no targets thrown his way on an extremely limited workload. Steven Sims (toe) and Antonio Gandy-Golden (hamstring) are both residing on IR at the moment, but Washington still has six receivers on its active roster, making Badet expendable for the time being.
