Brian Robinson is expected to be active for the Washington Commanders only one month after being shot in the leg in an attempted robbery.

Commanders coach Ron Rivera indicated this week Robinson's relentless work put him in position to be on the field with the team soon, but offered no immediate timetable. NFL Network reported Sunday that the move could come as early as this week.

Robinson, 23, was released from the hospital on Aug. 28 after being treated for multiple gunshot wounds.

A third-round pick, Robinson rushed for 57 yards on 14 carries with one touchdown in the preseason. He added two catches for 15 yards.

As a senior at Alabama in 2021, Robinson rushed for 1,343 yards with 14 touchdowns for the national title runner-up.
