What was a once-promising season for Washington Commanders rookie running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt has now taken a downward turn.
AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAfter serving as the team's starting running back in the wake of the season-ending injury to Austin Ekeler, JCM has been demoted and now serves as the team's RB3 behind both Chris Rodriguez and Jeremy McNichols.
Knowing that, it's no surprise that "Bill" is off to a slow start in the Week 13 game against the Washington Commanders.
Is Jacory Croskey-Merritt playing tonight?
Yes, JCM is active and healthy, but as we stated, he's no longer the starting running back, so his touches are going to be limited all night.
It's going to take an injury for Croskey-Merritt to see the field regularly, so don't expect much out of him tonight.
