Washington Commanders rookie running back Brian Robinson is in stable condition at a hospital after being shot multiple times during an attempted carjacking in Washington, D.C., a source with knowledge of the situation told ESPN.
His injuries are not considered life-threatening, the source said.
Robinson emerged this summer as Washington's primary early-down back as the coaches liked his ability to run inside, showing consistency and power. But he was still going to share duties with Antonio Gibson and third-down back J.D. McKissic. Robinson did not play in Washington's preseason finale Saturday night at Baltimore.
Washington drafted Robinson in the third round out of Alabama.
NBC Washington first reported the shooting.
