Jacory Croskey-Merritt vs NYG — Lead Back Duties Clouded by Groin Injury

Croskey-Merritt leads Washington's backfield on the depth chart, but his status requires close monitoring after he was limited in Wednesday's practice with a groin issue. With fellow running back Rachaad White also battling a shoulder injury, the backfield is banged up ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup against the Giants. Fantasy managers should check back often for the latest news on his game-day availability.

If active, he profiles as a risky flex option rather than a reliable starter. Our weekly projection slots him for approximately 13 carries and 41 rushing yards with minimal pass-game involvement. Given his recent slump to 1.8 yards per carry over his past two games, fantasy managers in standard leagues may want to consider safer alternatives.

Outlook Dohnte Meyers

Dohnte Meyers at Miami — Emerging Opportunity in a Banged-Up Receiving Corps

Meyers' role has expanded rapidly over the past two weeks, culminating in a seven-catch, 82-yard performance on nine targets. With Andrei Iosivas on injured reserve and top receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins both missing practice early in the week, Meyers is positioned for significant snaps in Cincinnati's offense.

Fantasy managers have taken notice, driving his roster mark up to 27%. While our weekly projection sits conservatively at 5.4 fantasy points on roughly two catches for 24 yards, Meyers brings genuine upside as a flex streamer against an 0-4 Dolphins team if Cincinnati's stars are sidelined.
