Brian Robinson Jr.

ESPN’s John Keim believes the Commanders would like to draft a “dynamic” running back “capable of playing on every down.”

Over the Commanders final 11 games in 2024, including the playoffs, their running backs averaged three yards per carry or less six times. So, there is a need for the club to add someone who could create more yards on the ground outside of quarterback Jayden Daniels. Drafting such a player could also provide a long-term solution due to the fact that current running backs Brian Robinson Jr. and Austin Ekeler are both in the final years of their contracts.
