The Washington Commanders traded running back Brian Robinson to the San Francisco 49ers for a 2026 sixth-round draft pick. Robinson, entering the final year of his contract with a $3.4 million salary, was likely to leave the Commanders anyway. The 49ers add Robinson to a backfield already featuring Christian McCaffrey, while the Commanders plan to rely on Austin Ekeler and rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt. In three seasons, Robinson rushed for 2,329 yards and 15 touchdowns, adding another 587 receiving yards and 5 touchdowns.
