Washington Commanders running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt has been ruled out for the upcoming Week 10 matchup against the New York Giants. The key player is sidelined due to a recurring groin injury that has plagued him since training camp.
Croskey-Merritt, who earned a starting role early in the 2026 season, was Washington's leading rusher before his injury. He recorded 239 rushing yards and two touchdowns this season prior to being placed on injured reserve on October 19.
His absence poses a challenge for the 2-5-1 Commanders as they look to improve their standing. The team hopes for his return on November 23 against the Cincinnati Bengals, the earliest date he is eligible to come off injured reserve.
