Commanders RB Brian Robinson said the team is planning to run more no-huddle offense in 2024.

Last season, the Commanders ran no-huddle at an eight percent rate in neutral game scripts, which ranked 10th-highest in the league. New offensive Kliff Kingsbury, who spent four seasons as the Cardinals’ head coach, ran no-huddle at an absurd 34 percent rate from 2019-2022 — the highest of any team in the league over that span. For perspective, second-highest team, the Giants, ran no-huddle on 19 percent of their plays over that same span. Robinson said the offense also plans to play at a faster pace, which could lead to solid fantasy production for multiple assets if everything clicks in year one under Kingsbury and rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. Kyler Murray finished as a top-10 fantasy quarterback in fantasy points per game in three of his four seasons under Kingsbury, but the offense never finished higher than 11th in points per game. Regardless, it’s an encouraging sign for the Commanders, who are looking to rebound from a 4-13 season, who ranked 25th in points per game and 24th in yards per game in their lone season under Eric Bieniemy.
