Kirk Merritt

Running BackRB
Fills multiple roles in win
RBHouston
May 4, 2025
Merritt rushed four times for nine yards, brought in one of two targets for 37 yards, returned one kickoff for 14 yards and recorded a one-point conversion run in the Roughnecks' 21-20 win over the Showboats on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Merritt's versatility has been his calling card dating back to his college days at Arkansas State, so his very busy afternoon was unsurprising. Merritt had trouble finding running room behind Houston's offensive line, but his reception was the game's longest and he also added the conversion run following Justin Hall's 13-yard touchdown grab late in the first quarter. Merritt will once again profile as an intriguing DFS value play for a Week 7 road battle with the Stallions next Sunday afternoon.
