Preface: This article was written before the news broke about Brian Robinson’s shooting, and I nearly decided not to publish it. This series is intended to provide a lighthearted take on fans’ excitement for the coming season. Like many fans, I am feeling anything but lighthearted after Robinson’s shooting. I was very excited about what Robinson would bring to the Commanders this season from the moment he was drafted. He was just on the cusp of making his NFL dream a reality when he was struck down by a random act of violence. I am sure many fans felt echoes of the Sean Taylor tragedy when they heard the news.
