Commanders rookie running back Brian Robinson Jr. was shot multiple times on Sunday evening during an attempted robbery.
Robinson Jr.'s injuries from the shooting are non-life threatening, per NBC Sports Washington's JP Finlay.
The incident occurred in Northeast Washington on the 1000 block of H Street, law enforcement sources told NBC4. The suspects tried to take Robinson Jr.'s Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat, upon which a scuffle ensued and the shots were fired. Robinson Jr. was taken to an area hospital following the incident.
The 23-year-old was selected in the third round of the most recent NFL Draft and, after a strong preseason, was trending toward a major role in the team's offense during the 2022 regular season.
