Makes most of opportunity Robinson gained 26 yards on six carries and a touchdown in Saturday's 23-21 preseason loss to the Panthers.
Impact Robinson recorded his first carry on the team's third offensive possession. He ripped off gains of 11, six and five yards before finishing the drive with a one-yard plunge into the end zone. Robinson could continue to earn more of a role in the offense, particularly after Antonio Gibson fumbled deep in Washington's own territory Saturday.

Impact Standig suggests the Commanders want Gibson to get more touches in space and fewer between the tackles, perhaps relying on his excellent athleticism more and his questionable vision less. Robinson could take some of that work off Gibson's plate, with the rookie third-round pick potentially forming a timeshare with J.D. McKissic in the event Gibson's injury woes stretch into the regular season. Robinson reportedly got most of the first-team backfield snaps through the first couple days of training camp.

Enters D.C. backfield The Commanders selected Robinson in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 98th overall.
Impact Robinson (6-foot-2, 225 pounds) is big running back with an upright build, which can be a hindrance. He was one of the least productive Alabama running backs in recent memory, playing as a backup for four years before finally starting as a fifth-year player in 2021. He'll run hard and do his job well, but the talent is not compelling and he doesn't project to be more than a backup at any point. Even a player like T.J. Yeldon was a much better Crimson Tide prospect.
