The Washington Commanders are underway at training camp! That, of course, means the season is right around the corner, and we'll soon have answers to our biggest questions.
One of the questions is how the running back rotation will work out. Jacory Croskey-Merritt had a respectable rookie season, but the team added Rachaad White, Kaytron Allen, and Jerome Ford this offseason. Any of that trio could push for a large role, meaning Croskey-Merritt has his work cut out for him.
The second-year running back is coming to camp prepared, though. During the first day of camp on Wednesday, Croskey-Merritt showed up noticeably more built. The running back reportedly put on eight pounds of muscle over the offseason due to wanting to break more tackles.

— Scott Abraham (@Scott7news) July 29, 2026 "I just want to be stronger, be able to break more tackles," Croskey-Merritt said. "I just want to be able to do more stuff, and I think it's going to pay off, man."
The running back played in all 17 games as a rookie and ended with 805 yards and eight touchdowns. Croskey-Merritt had a mediocre stretch over the middle of the season, though, and he struggled to break through contact. The hope is that the experience and added weight will help in that area in 2026.
"I was just working, eating the right things," Croskey-Merritt explained. "(The team) had a plan for me and I went with it headfirst."
It will be interesting to see if Croskey-Merritt can do enough to maintain RB1 status. White is a former teammate of Jayden Daniels, and the Commanders obviously liked him enough to make a decent investment. Allen has also had some flashes this summer, and some around the league think he can be a starter eventually.
