Brian Robinson Jr. Won't Play Against Giants
1 month agoWashington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) will be inactive in Week 9 versus the division-rival New York Giants on Sunday. As of Sunday morning, Robinson was expected to be OK to play, but plans changed after he was put through a pre-game workout. He came into Sunday's game listed as questionable on the final injury report. Fantasy managers that were planning on starting Robinson this weekend will obviously have to move him to their benches now. Austin Ekeler essentially becomes a must-start in fantasy with B-Rob out in a good matchup against a Giants defense that has given up the 10th-most half-PPR fantasy points to RBs in the last three weeks. Behind Ekeler, Jeremy McNichols will also see an uptick in usage as Washington's No. 2 back against New York.
