WSHRB • #8

Brian Robinson Jr. rushed 17 times for 133 yards in the Commanders’ Week 2 win over the Giants.

Robinson only managed to bring in one of his three targets for a three-yard gain. Still, he looked the part of a running back who can lead his backfield in touches while still maintaining his efficiency. Robinson has out-carried Austin Ekeler 29-10 through two games and is averaging six yards per carry. He picked up 40 yards on a third-and-one that saw him plunge into a pile of linemen only to materialize on the other side of the pile a second later with plenty of room to run. Robinson still gave up some work to Austin Ekeler on passing downs, but he’s seeing plenty of work between the tackles and breaking chunk plays off at a strong clip. He will sit at the back of the RB2 ranks for the Commanders’ Week 3 game versus the Bengals.
