Croskey-Merritt struggled vs. Eagles in 2025; faces worse O-line in Week 1.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt struggled mightily against the Eagles defense in 2025, registering two of his eight lowest success rates (30.8% and 37.5%), two of his three lowest rates of rushing over expected (season-low 15.4% and 25.0%), two of his six fewest yards per carry outputs (season-low 2.2 and 3.1), and two of his eight lowest EPA/carry totals (-0.3 and -0.1) among games with at least five rushes. On 21 carries vs. Philadelphia, he generated only one explosive run. With the Commanders' offensive line now missing Laremy Tunsil and featuring Nick Allegretti at center, Croskey-Merritt may struggle to improve upon his rookie season marks against Vic Fangio's defense, especially with Jordan Davis (16.5% run stop rate) anchoring the interior.
