Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert scored a touchdown in a Week 18 win over the Washington Commanders. Tolbert was only targeted three times but make two catches for eight yards including a three-yard touchdown pass from Dak Prescott to open the scoring in the first quarter and give the Cowboys a 7-0 lead. Tolbert showed some flashes this season but played mostly in a bit role on offense, putting up a total of 22 catches for 268 yards and two touchdowns on the season.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver Parker Washington finished his first season in the NFL on Sunday with just one catch for an 11-yard gain in the 28-20 upset loss to the Tennessee Titans in the Week 18 regular season finale. In nine total games, the sixth-rounder from Penn State caught just 16 passes on 21 targets for 132 yards and two touchdowns. Washington played just once in the first 10 weeks of the season. He caught eight passes on nine targets for 88 yards and two touchdowns right after Christian Kirk suffered a core muscle injury that landed him on Injured Reserve. It looked like the 21-year-old would have a bigger role down the stretch, but he ended up with only eight catches on 14 targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in the final four contests. He should return as extra receiver depth for the Jags in 2024.
