Brian Robinson Jr. Sees Increased Rushing Workload for 49ers in Win Over Cardinals

San Francisco 49ers running back Brian Robinson Jr. garnered eight carries for 24 yards in Sunday's win over the Cardinals, marking his second-tightest carry split with Christian McCaffrey this season, trailing only Week 10's 12-8 split. Robinson received his first two carries before the end of the first quarter, and the first half concluded with McCaffrey holding only a 6-3 carry lead. This increased role is notable, especially as Robinson had scored in two consecutive games prior to Sunday. While McCaffrey continues to dominate backfield receiving, Robinson's growing involvement in the rushing attack is a development worth monitoring.
