Expert Note
View More NotesJacory Croskey-Merritt is the RB36 in fantasy points per game, averaging 15.3 touches and 49.3 total yards. Bill has a 46.5% snap share with 47.5% of the rushing attempts and a 25% route share (5.1% target share). His rushing metrics have suffered behind Washington's horrible offensive line. Bill has only a 3.7% explosive run rate, 1.84 yards after contact per attempt, and a 5% missed tackle rate. He has another nice matchup this week, but I doubt his ability to find space again this week behind this offensive line. He has only 0.96 yards before contact per attempt. The line isn't even giving him a hard before contact while he also has a 53.6% rate of getting hit at or behind the line of scrimmage. New York has allowed the 12th-highest explosive run rate, the third-highest rushing success rate, and the fifth-most yards before contact per attempt. Bill should see enough volume to be at least flex-viable.

Fantasy Impact
The young running back has been limited at both of Washington's practices to start the week. He's still day-to-day with a groin issue, but it looks like he's trending towards playing through it this week. However, fantasy managers shouldn't have high expectations for him even if he's fully healthy for this matchup against the Giants.
