Brian Robinson Active vs. Eagles
Game Status Update
The Washington Commanders have announced that running back Brian Robinson will be active and available to play in their Week 3 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. Robinson suffered a gunshot wound to the leg during an attempted carjacking in August, but he has made a remarkable recovery and is now expected to make his NFL debut.
Robinson's Return to the Field
Robinson's return is a major boost for the Commanders, who have been without their lead running back for the first two games of the season. Robinson was a key part of Alabama's national championship team last year, and he is expected to play a major role in the Commanders' offense this year.
The Commanders are hoping that Robinson can provide a spark to their offense, which has struggled in the first two games of the season. The Commanders have averaged just 15 points per game, and they are hoping that Robinson can help them get into the end zone more consistently.
Eagles' Defense Prepares for Robinson
The Eagles' defense will be tasked with stopping Robinson on Sunday. The Eagles have allowed just 10 points per game in the first two games of the season, and they will be looking to continue their strong play against the run.
The Eagles will likely try to limit Robinson's touches by blitzing him and forcing the Commanders to pass the ball. The Eagles also have a strong pass rush, which could make it difficult for the Commanders to get the ball to Robinson in the passing game.
