Brian Robinson Jr. Viewed As High-End RB2 In Week 3

2 months ago

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. is coming off an excellent game where he ran for a career-high 133 yards against the New York Giants. In this game, he ran the ball 17 times and saw three targets in the passing game but could only catch one of them. Robinson earned 15 touches for 89 total yards in the opening week and found the end zone. The Alabama product has established himself as the lead runner in the Washington backfield, while Austin Ekeler was essentially deployed in passing situations. Despite the limited opportunities, Robinson has been a very efficient runner by averaging six yards per carry and posting a robust 4.2 average yards after contact. On Monday night, Robinson will face a Cincinnati defense that has surrendered a hefty 159.9 rushing yards per game, making him a strong RB2 with upside.
