Désormais, c’est le vétéran Austin Ekeler qui s’impose comme le running back numéro 1 pour le match d’ouverture de la saison NFL 2025.<\/p>

Le backfield des Washington Commanders a pris une toute nouvelle dimension après l’échange surprise de Brian Robinson Jr. vers les San Francisco 49ers. Robinson était pressenti comme le titulaire tout au long de l’intersaison, mais son départ a laissé un vide qui devait être comblé. <\/p>

Austin Ekeler prend les commandes<\/h2>

Selon la mise à jour du depth chart, Ekeler a officiellement été désigné comme le titulaire. Derrière lui figurent Jeremy McNichols, Chris Rodriguez et le rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt, choisi au 7e tour de la draft.<\/p>

Croskey-Merritt avait été vu un temps comme un favori au poste, suivi de Rodriguez. Mais pour les joueurs de fantasy football, ni l’un ni l’autre ne devraient assumer la responsabilité principale : Ekeler reste le leader du backfield.<\/p>

Cette promotion traduit une évolution importante dans l’identité offensive de Washington. À 30 ans, l’ancien joueur des Los Angeles Chargers demeure fiable et polyvalent, même si ses dernières saisons ont montré une baisse d’explosivité. L’an dernier, déjà sous le maillot des Commanders, il a enregistré une moyenne de 4,77 yards par course, 735 yards au total et 4 touchdowns.<\/p>

La vision de Dan Quinn<\/h2>

Le coach Dan Quinn a souligné la diversité des profils dans le groupe de running backs, laissant penser à une approche flexible en attaque. Ekeler portera une large part du jeu en ce début de saison, mais les jeunes auront de plus en plus d’opportunités.<\/p>

Croskey-Merritt attire particulièrement l’attention. Auteur de 1 190 yards et 17 touchdowns avec New Mexico avant de rejoindre Arizona, il s’est illustré au training camp et en présaison par sa vitesse et son explosivité.<\/p>

Expérience contre jeunesse<\/h3>

Les analystes rappellent qu’Ekeler reste une arme redoutable en red zone. Mais une question demeure : les Commanders s’appuieront-ils sur lui toute la saison, ou bien prépareront-ils progressivement la relève avec Croskey-Merritt et Rodriguez ?<\/p>

Cette nouvelle rotation confirme une tendance claire : l’équilibre entre expérience et jeunesse pourrait être la clé d’un des backfields les plus polyvalents de la NFL<\/a>, surtout sous la conduite du quarterback Jayden Daniels.<\/p>

Pour ce premier match de la saison, les Commanders sont favoris chez Parions Sport<\/a> avec une cote de 1.33 face aux Giants. De son côté Austin Ekeler a un cut de 24.5 yards à la course pour ce match avec un over à 1.90 et un under à 1.80 chez Betclic<\/a>.<\/p>
