# David Harrison: Harrison names six Washington Commanders breakout candidates for 2026 — RB Jacory Crosskey-Merritt, LB Sonny Styles, WR Antonio Williams, DT Johnny Newton, RT Josh Conerly Jr. and CB Trey Amos — attaching production bars to each: 1,000-plus scrimmage yards and 10 scores for Crosskey-Merritt, ~90 tackles and 90% of snaps for Styles, 40/650/4 for Williams, six-plus sacks for Newton, and a top-15 (possibly top-10) coverage finish plus a first career interception for Amos. **Claimed:** Jul 3, 2026 **Pundit:** David Harrison — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/david-harrison **Outlet:** Locked On Commanders (podcast) — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/locked-on-commanders-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air, transcribed by us **Original:** https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/pdrl.fm/7c3048/lockedon.simplecastaudio.com/dd4ec57b-d2e1-4378-a057-7e7fe1d38252/episodes/f12a0623-738c-45a2-bb6b-91a072d7e75b/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=dd4ec57b-d2e1-4378-a057-7e7fe1d38252&awEpisodeId=f12a0623-738c-45a2-bb6b-91a072d7e75b&feed=psq7p3Ar 10 checkable claims — 6 player season numbers, 3 depth chart calls and 1 positional finish — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 6 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 3 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 2 and below it on 1. > I really don't see a reason that Bill can't get at least 200 carries. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Antonio Williams to record 650 receiving yards** - Kind: Player Season Numbers · About: Antonio Williams, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Antonio Williams to record 4 receiving tds** - Kind: Player Season Numbers · About: Antonio Williams, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Trey Amos to record 1 interceptions** - Kind: Player Season Numbers · About: Trey Amos, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jacory Croskey-Merritt to record 26 receptions** - Kind: Player Season Numbers · About: Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Sonny Styles to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Sonny Styles, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Antonio Williams to be 3rd on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Antonio Williams, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Trey Amos to finish top 15 at his position, by interceptions** - Kind: Positional Finishes · About: Trey Amos, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Trey Amos to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Trey Amos, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Antonio Williams to record 40 receptions** - Kind: Player Season Numbers · About: Antonio Williams, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jer'Zhan Newton to record 6 sacks** - Kind: Player Season Numbers · About: Jer'Zhan Newton, Washington Commanders - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Antonio Williams — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/antonio-williams-1040 - Washington Commanders — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/commanders - Trey Amos — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/trey-amos - Jacory Croskey-Merritt — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/jacory-croskey-merritt - Sonny Styles — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/sonny-styles - Jer'Zhan Newton — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/jer-zhan-newton ## What others said about the same people - Jordan Dajani on Washington Commanders: Dajani picks the Commanders to edge the Giants 21-20 on Thursday and the Chiefs to beat the Falcons 26-20 in Week 10. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/46f7646f-2c64-4827-a522-67975af79fb6 (scored 95.24) - Tyler Sullivan on Washington Commanders: Sullivan takes the Commanders 24-21 over the Giants on Thursday night and calls for a Steelers upset of the Bengals, 27-24, in Week 10. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/1bb32676-c3b3-4b8e-8a03-b58396cf98bf (scored 100) - John Breech on Washington Commanders: Breech picks the Commanders to upset the Giants on Thursday night, 24-17, and takes the Texans to beat the Browns 24-16 in Week 10 behind a pass rush that should batter Deshaun Watson. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/9fddc8e1-3823-4252-bdd7-f81ef11b1da3 (scored 90.48) - Jordan Dajani on Washington Commanders: Dajani picked seven Week 10 games with final scores, including a Commanders upset of the Giants, Lions over the Patriots in Munich, Chiefs over the Falcons, Packers edging the Vikings, 49ers over the Cowboys, Bengals over the Steelers and Ravens over the Chargers.
