Injury Update On Commanders Running Back

He suffered a sprain in this past week's game.

Washington Commanders running back Antonio Gibson did not take part in Thursday's practice.

Antonio Gibson DNP on Wed/Thurs, so watch this closely, as Brian Robinson lands a great spot vs. the #Browns if AG was inactive. The script is in his favor with or without AG, so he's in play, but he is highly recommended without AG. #Commanders pic.twitter.com/sLcz6j4oFQ

Gibson has begun the week with back-to-back absences from practice due to knee and foot injuries, giving him one more chance to return to the field in some capacity before the Commanders have to make a decision on his status for Sunday's big game against the Cleveland Browns. 

If Gibson can't go this week, rookie Brian Robinson will handle an increased workload, with Jonathan Williams getting some snaps as well.

In 15 games this season, Gibson has rushed 149 times for 546 yards and three touchdowns, along with 46 receptions for 353 yards and two touchdowns on 58 targets.
