Brian Robinson Jr. did not practice with the Commanders on Wednesday due to his knee injury. There is also no confirmation on whether the player will feature in the matchup against the Browns on Sunday.

Fantasy managers looking to pick Robinson Jr. for Week 5 should wait until the player gets an active status. Washington has two more practice sessions before hosting Cleveland and it will be interesting to see if the running back resumes training soon to stand a chance at playing this weekend.

Per reports, Robinson may have picked up his knee injury in Week 4 against the Arizona Cardinals. However, there is also a case that the Commanders may have kept him out of Wednesday's practice simply as a precautionary measure.

Robinson has enjoyed an excellent start to the 2024 season thus far. He has racked up 307 yards on 66 carries and scored three touchdowns. The versatile offensive weapon has also posted 68 yards on 11 receptions in four appearances.

In terms of fantasy football, Robinson has tallied 63.5 points and he is averaging just under 15.9 points per game. However, it's unclear whether he will add to those numbers in Week 5.
