Commanders' Brian Robinson: Scores TD as lead back in Week 1
Robinson rushed 12 times for 40 yards and a touchdown while catching three of four targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Buccaneers.
Robinson finished with 12 carries and four targets to Austin Ekeler's two carries and four targets, though Ekeler (52) was the only Commander to post more receiving yards than Robinson in the game. Robinson's production included a seven-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter and a 32-yard reception in the third quarter that set up a one-yard Jayden Daniels rushing touchdown on the next play. Washington looks like it will rely heavily on the rushing attack this season considering Daniels led the way with 88 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. While Robinson will likely continue to cede goal-line rushing opportunities to the team's mobile quarterback, the running back's usage was nonetheless encouraging ahead of a Week 2 home game against the Giants.
