Brian Robinson Jr. Sees Heavy Usage In Week 11 Loss
1 year agoWashington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. had 17 carries for 73 yards while also hauling in seven-of-nine targets for 58 yards during Sunday's loss to the New York Giants. With fellow running back Antonio Gibson (toe) inactive for Week 11, Robinson saw some elite usage as 24 total touches were a season-high. The second-year back also led Washington in scrimmage yards with 131. If this game says anything, it's that the former Alabama back is the main guy out of this backfield when Gibson isn't available. If his teammate continues to miss time, Robinson should be a locked-in starter for most lineups when Washington faces the Dallas Cowboys in Week 12.
