Just one week into the Jacory Croskey-Merritt experience, the most remarkable thing is that all the hype around the Washington Commanders running back may be true.
How many times have we seen a ballyhooed rookie begin his career with modest results? Croskey-Merritt might ultimately prove to be just as good as advertised, but early on, the typical message to fans is that maybe they need to slow their roll.
After seeing what Croskey-Merritt did against the New York Giants and their very solid run defense, maybe we can actually speed that roll up.
