USA TODAY Touchdown Wire on MSNGrading Commanders' trade of Brian Robinson Jr. to 49ers
The Washington Commanders traded former starting running back Brian Robinson Jr. to the San Francisco 49ers on Friday. While some around the team weren't shocked that Robinson would not be on Washington's 53-man roster next week, no one could have foreseen the past week.
Coach Dan Quinn said he spoke to Robinson on Sunday afternoon, and there are “a lot of moving parts.” “News like that’s always not easy,” Quinn said regarding his conversation with Robinson.
As the Commanders dangle running back Brian Robinson Jr. for a possible trade, they’re developing trust in less experienced players such as Rodriguez.
