The Washington Commanders offense is undergoing a seismic shift with the drafting of Jayden Daniels to be their franchise player. However, every young quarterback needs a running game to prevent defenses from being in “Shark Week” mode and attacking on every snap.
Brian Robinson Jr. has made the most of his opportunity, and new head coach Dan Quinn has talked a big game about his ability. However, the arrival of Austin Ekeler (and offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury) point to a change in philosophy. Chris Rodriguez Jr. and Jeremy McNichols have a good view of the show but won’t be part of it, barring catastrophe.
