Washington Commanders rookie running back Brian Robinson shot multiple times during an attempted carjacking
We are sending out prayers tonight for Washington Commanders rookie running back Brian Robinson who was shot multiple times in an apparent carjacking attempt, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
While the gun shot wounds are considered life threatening it is a very scary situation.
Robinson emerged this summer as Washington’s primary early-down back. The rookie was scheduled to share duties with Antonio Gibson and third-down back J.D. McKissic, but the Commanders planned on utilizing him quite a bit. Robinson did not play in Washington’s preseason finale Saturday night at Baltimore.
Washington drafted Robinson in the third round out of Alabama.
Please keep the young running back in your prayers during this tough time.
