The Washington Commanders will be without their leading running back, Brian Robinson, for their upcoming game against the Baltimore Ravens due to a right knee injury. Robinson, who has been a key player for the Commanders this season, missed practice all week and was ruled out on Saturday. The Commanders, currently leading the NFL in scoring, will rely on backup options Austin Ekeler and Jeremy McNichols, along with newly elevated Chris Rodriguez Jr. to fill the void left by Robinson.
- Brian Robinson's absence is a significant blow to the Commanders' offense.
- The Commanders still have capable backups in Ekeler and McNichols, but they will miss Robinson's production.
