2025 Fantasy Outlook
A rookie seventh-round pick, Croskey-Merritt was expected to compete with Chris Rodriguez and Jeremy McNichols for the No. 3 RB job in Washington but may now have a shot at something bigger. The team traded Brian Robinson on Aug. 22, moving forward with Austin Ekeler, Croskey-Merritt, Rodriguez and McNichols in the backfield. Eligibility issues limited Croskey-Merritt to one game at Arizona last year, but he ran for 1,190 yards and 17 touchdowns at New Mexico the year before, and he posted a 4.45 40-yard dash at his pro day this spring. He caught just seven passes in 2023, however, and he enters the NFL as a 24-year-old rookie. If nothing else, the opportunity in Washington is an excellent one, allowing Croskey-Merritt to get his foot in the door immediately. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Signed a four-year, $4.31 million contract with the Commanders in May of 2025.
Limited output in Week 14
Croskey-Merritt rushed the ball seven times for 32 yards in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Croskey-Merritt was once again uninspiring in Week 14, playing 10 snaps on offense, which was 12 fewer than fellow running back Chris Rodriguez (22). Croskey-Merritt has now gone eight straight games without reaching the end zone, and he hasn't crossed 40 yards on the ground since Week 6. With Washington's season going sideways and Rodriguez getting the majority of the workload in the backfield, Croskey-Merritt is an unappealing fantasy option at the moment.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Trending up for Week 4?
Croskey-Merritt is listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 4 game against the Falcons due to a knee injury, but he was a full participant in Friday's practice, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Croskey-Merritt's prospects weren't very bright over the first two days of the practice week, as he was a non-participant both Wednesday and Thursday. However, the rookie back had a good practice Friday according to head coach Dan Quinn, who also said Croskey-Merritt was "working incredibly hard round the clock to get back" but still needed final clearance from doctors.
