Former Alabama running back Brian Robinson was recently drafted in the third round of the 2022 NFL draft by the Washington Commanders. Reports are surfacing that he was shot multiple times in a robbery attempt on Sunday.
The injuries he sustained as a result of being shot are unclear, but he is in stable condition according to JP Finlay of NBC Washington.
Other than the description he suffered “non-life-threatening injuries,” much remains unclear.
Robinson was competing against Antonio Gibson for the starting running back role in Washington and was expected to soon be named the starter.
Commanders rookie RB Brian Robinson has been shot multiple times in robbery attempt, per @nbcwashington. Sources tell me it’s non life threatening. Much more to come.
