Brian Robinson, the leading rusher for the Washington Commanders, was inactive for their matchup against the New York Giants. Despite practicing on a limited basis throughout the week, he was listed as questionable before the game.

With Robinson sidelined, Austin Ekeler is expected to take on a larger role in the running game. Robinson has had a productive season, accumulating 461 rushing yards and six touchdowns, including a standout performance of 133 yards against the Giants in September.

On the Giants' side, Jude McAtamney steps in as the kicker, replacing Greg Joseph, who was placed on injured reserve due to an abdominal injury.
