Washington was selected in the fifth round (170th overall) of the 2020 NFL draft by the Baltimore Ravens.[3] The Ravens received the 170th pick used to select Washington as a result from a trade that sent Kaare Vedvik to the Minnesota Vikings. Washington signed his rookie contract on May 5, 2020.[4] He was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list by the team on November 28, 2020,[5] and activated two days later.[6]
On August 9, 2023, Washington signed a three-year, $17.5 million contract extension with the Ravens.[7]

Washington, who admitted to being intoxicated at the time of the incident and did not have a previous criminal record, later pled no contest to a single charge of misdemeanor destruction of property. He received a suspended sentence and fine conditional on his completion of both community service and a restitution plan.[8]
