Brian Robinson is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for running backs. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 6 of the 2022 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 62% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Brian Robinson’s roster percentage has finally eclipsed 60% during the past seven days following two sizable steps that allowed him to emerge on the field. Washington designated him to return from the reserve/non-football injury list and later activated him for the Commanders’ Week 5 matchup with Tennessee.
This propelled the rookie into a rotation with Antonio Gibson, even though Robinson led Washington's reconstructed backfield with nine rushing attempts during his debut. Robinson also manufactured 22 yards on the ground, while Gibson was relegated to a season-low 32% snap share, just three carries, and could only manufacture six yards.
Robinson is now on track to seize a significant role while operating with the early down responsibilities that he earned during training camp and the preseason. This positions him to ascend into RB2 status once he receives an expanded workload. Gibson had been averaging 13.3 attempts per game prior to Robinson's debut but his role will be reduced significantly as a sizable percentage of rushing attempts will be designated for Robinson.
That warrants including Robinson among the most enticing roster additions. However, this week will present the final opportunity to secure him in most leagues where he is still available.
