Brian Robinson Jr. Finds The End Zone In Return

Sunday, October 20, 7:25 PM

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. had a productive day in his return as he tallied 71 yards on the ground off 12 attempts and found the end zone for the sixth time this season. He did not see a target in the passing game. The Commanders got ahead of Carolina quite early and gave their rusher a limited workload in the second half as the game was out of hand. However, the 25-year-old looked healthy after his Week 6 absence due to a knee injury as he reclaimed his typical short-yardage role. Robinson should be locked into all lineups as an RB2 next weekend against the Chicago Bears.

James Cook Struggles To Find Running Room, Scores Against Tennessee

Sunday, October 20, 7:08 PM

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook rushed 12 times for 32 yards and a touchdown in the team's 34-10 win over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. For the first time this season, Cook did not record a reception. The touchdown saved what was otherwise an inefficient day on the ground. Cook returned to the lineup after a one-game absence and handled the early-down work for the Bills in the first half. Backup rookie Ray Davis (five carries, 41 yards, one touchdown) got the majority of his production in the second half. Expect Cook to remain the starter and handle most of the running back touches against Seattle in Week 8.
