Brian Robinson Jr. will be a healthy scratch for the preseason game against the Bengals, signaling that the Washington Commanders may be considering releasing him before the final year of his rookie contract. Although he was the starter on the depth chart, the team is leaning towards using a committee approach and heavily featuring veteran Austin Ekeler. Robinson, who had 799 rushing yards and eight touchdowns last season, has limited explosive runs. The Commanders have depth in running backs, including Chris Rodriguez Jr. and rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt, and could feature multiple backs this season.
All six or seven guys in there have a place in this league. They all have dynamic traits and do really well when they have their opportunity.
Robinson led Washington running backs with 799 rushing yards and eight touchdowns last year, showcasing his physicality despite producing few explosive runs.
