Croskey-Merritt is listed as the starter, and the Commanders are hoping he ices Rachaad White, who is only on a one-year, $2 million contract. He is a little boom-bust as a runner and isn't guaranteed the goal-line work as the slightly smaller and unproven short-yardage rusher.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Croskey-Merritt starter but boom-bust; goal-line work uncertain vs. White.

Croskey-Merritt is listed as the starter, and the Commanders are hoping he ices Rachaad White, who is only on a one-year, $2 million contract. However, Croskey-Merritt is a little boom-bust as a runner and isn't guaranteed the goal-line work as the slightly smaller and unproven short-yardage rusher. There is some trap back concern with him, though it's helpful to share a backfield with an elite rushing QB like Jayden Daniels. There will be big runs sprinkled throughout the season. Croskey-Merritt projects for 40.5 total yards and 6.7 half-PPR points.
