Brian Robinson of the Washington Commanders was shot in D.C. this weekend … TMZ Sports has confirmed.

The 23-year-old running back was struck by two bullets Sunday, which his lower half — this during an attempted carjacking … according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. We’ve been told he’s been hospitalized and is in stable condition. He’s expected to survive his injuries.

My understanding is at least two bullets struck #Commanders RB Brian Robinson in the lower body. As @MikeGarafolo said, Robinson is hospitalized in stable condition. A terrible situation that could’ve been even worse.
