Does it need to be washed? No.

Is it a good idea to rinse it off? Yes. Sometimes purge can develop off-odors and flavors. Rinsing the chicken will help to remove that as well as to help reduce some of the bacterial load.

You can, but there's no real need to wash chicken before cooking it. The heat from cooking will kill any bacteria on the meat.
