Related Topics: Placed, Ian Rapoport

The Commanders announced Thursday that they’ve placed running back Brian Robinson Jr. on the reserve/non-injury list. As a result, he will miss at least the first four games of the season.

Robinson was shot twice in a suspected armed robbery attempt Sunday evening. It was originally reported by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport that he was shot in the glute and the lower leg. On Tuesday, NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reported that one bullet, the one that didn’t hit him in the glute, actually hit him in the knee, and the bullet missed all major ligaments, tendons and bone.
