Jaguars' James Robinson (Achilles) expected to be active for Week 1

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (Achilles) is expected to play in Week 1's game against the Washington Commanders.

What It Means:

Robinson is expected to play in Week 1, according to Doug Pederson. Nine months removed from a season-ending Achilles injury, it remains to be seen how effective he will be in his first game back. That said, his active status is an excellent sign that he has progressed well in his recovery. Our models expect him to handle 10.5 carries and 1.5 receptions in Week 1.

Robinson's Week 1 projection includes 45.7 rushing yards, 0.33 total touchdowns, and 8.1 FanDuel points. His salary is $6,200.
