Resolution criteria
Resolve YES if Jacory “Bill” Croskey‑Merritt is credited with at least 1 yard in any official stat category (rushing, receiving, kick or punt return, fumble/interception return) in Washington’s Week 1 regular-season game vs. the New York Giants on Sunday, September 7, 2025. Verify via the NFL box score or either backup source below. (commanders.com, espn.com, pro-football-reference.com)
Resolve NO if he is inactive, does not play, or finishes with 0 or negative yards across all categories.
Includes any official stat corrections posted by 11:59 pm ET on September 9, 2025; later changes won’t affect resolution. If the game is postponed, resolution uses the eventual Week 1 game once played.

Background
Washington hosts the Giants in Week 1 on Sep 7, 2025 (1:00 pm ET). (commanders.com, espn.com)
Croskey‑Merritt is a 2025 seventh‑round pick of Washington who prefers the nickname “Bill.” (en.wikipedia.org)
Week 1 depth chart lists him as RB4; primary returners are Deebo Samuel Sr. (KR) and Jaylin Lane (PR). (commanders.com)
Washington traded Brian Robinson Jr. to the 49ers in August 2025, shaping the RB room. (nfl.com)
Considerations
As RB4 and not a listed returner, his most likely path to 1+ yard is limited offensive snaps (or incidental special‑teams plays). Depth‑chart status as of Sep 2 may change by gameday; check inactives and box score. (commanders.com)
