Commanders RB Brian Robinson on field for second straight practice

Ben Standig

Oct 17 · 8:43 PM EDT

Brian Robinson (knee) and Dorance Armstrong (rib) are both here at the start of practice.

Terry McLaurin is participating in position drills after a rest day.

Related Players: Austin Ekeler, Jeremy McNichols

Fantasy Impact:

Ekeler didn't do much with his heightened rushing opportunity last week, going 9-21-0, though he did add four catches for 47 yards, which saved his fantasy day. Both Robinson and Ekeler could be options if they're both at full health in Week 7, as they face off against a Panthers team that has been gashed everywhere and currently rank 32nd in RB aFPA.

WAS RB Austin Ekeler - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs Carolina Panthers

Week 6 wasn’t a banner week for Austin Ekeler, even with Brian Robinson missing out. Ekeler could only muster 8.8 Half-PPR points against the Ravens and finished as the RB27 for the week. This was, surprisingly for some, a boost to his output, as he currently sits at RB32 in points per game this season.

Week 7 should be a better day for Ekeler with an inviting matchup against the Panthers on the slate. The Panthers rank dead last in aFPA to running backs this season. Ekeler projects as a solid RB2 option this week.
