Brian Robinson and Diontae Johnson will play in the Commanders-Panthers duel

Running back Brian Robinson is back in the Commanders lineup.

Robinson missed last week’s loss to the Ravens with a knee injury and was listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Panthers, but avoided the inactive list Sunday afternoon.

The Panthers will also have an important offensive figure. Wide receiver Diontae Johnson is active after being listed as questionable with rib, hamstring and ankle injuries.

While Johnson is ready to go, the Panthers have numerous injury issues. Linebacker Jadeveon Clowney, right tackle Taylor Moton, linebacker Josey Jewell, tight end Tommy Tremble, linebacker Jon Rhattigan, defensive end A’Shawn Robinson and linebacker Claudin Cherelus are all out with injuries.

Quarterback Jeff Driskel, defensive end Dorance Armstrong, safety Tyler Owens, linebacker Dominique Hampton and guard Chris Paul are inactive for the Commanders.
