Two-yard catch in win
Robinson caught his only target for two yards in Sunday's 24-14 win over the Packers.
Analysis: Robinson was expected to see an increased role over the last two weeks with Jameson Williams (suspension) unavailable, but he logged only 31 offensive snaps combined versus the Titans and Packers, catching one of two targets for two yards. With Williams returning in Week 10 against the the Texans, Robinson's already limited role will likely shrink further.

Increased role expected
Head coach Dan Campbell stated Wednesday that Robinson will take on a heavy load against the Titans on Sunday, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.
Analysis: Robinson was signed to the Lions' active roster Sept. 26, but he has only appeared in two games, seeing limited snaps and a single target. However, with Jameson Williams expected to be serving the first of a two-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy against performance-enhancing substances, there will be plenty of snaps up for grabs at wide receiver.

Signed to active roster
The Lions signed Robinson off their practice squad Thursday.
Analysis: Robinson becomes the second Lions receiver this week to get a promotion from the practice squad, after Tim Patrick signed with Detroit on Tuesday. Both wideouts were elevated from the practice squad ahead of last week's win over the Cardinals, but Patrick (34 offensive snaps) saw significantly more playing time than Robinson (one snap). Expect Patrick to continue serving as the preferred No. 3 wideout behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, while Robinson contends with the likes of Kalif…read more

Goes back to practice squad
Robinson reverted to Detroit's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Robinson saw just one snap during Sunday's 20-13 win at Arizona and did not record any stats. As long as Detroit continues to lean on its running game and Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams remain available, it's difficult to imagine any other Lions wideout having any fantasy relevance.

Gets elevated from practice squad
The Lions elevated Robinson from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Analysis: Robinson wasn't able to secure a spot on the Lions' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but the 2014 second-round pick opted to stick around on Detroit's practice squad. He played 17 regular-season games for the Steelers in 2023 and finished with 34 catches (on 49 targets) for 280 yards.

Signs with Detroit's practice squad
Robinson signed with Detroit's practice squad Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Robinson's best days are behind him, as the three-time 1,000-yard receiver had just 1,029 receiving yards combined over the last three regular seasons between the Bears, Rams and Steelers, then failed to secure a roster spot on cut-down day with the Giants. Nonetheless, the 31-year-old Robinson has a chance to eventually move up to the active roster for a Lions team that's currently carrying only four healthy wide receivers.

Can't secure roster spot
The Giants are releasing Robinson on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Robinson finds himself among New York's initial cuts as the team trims down to a 53-man roster. The veteran wideout signed with the Giants back in May, but it appears he couldn't show enough in training camp and the preseason to cement a depth role for himself. Robinson will be free to search for a reserve gig elsewhere in the league, and he could also be a candidate to resurface on the team's practice squad.

On roster bubble
Robinson recorded one reception on one target for four yards in Saturday's preseason 10-6 loss to the Jets.
Analysis: Robinson's stat line doesn't have much meaning, but the fact that he suited up was not a positive sign of his status on the Giants' roster. The team sat its top four receivers -- all of whom are certain to make the roster -- leaving Robinson and Isaiah Hodgins to start the game. However, with special teams contributors such as Miles Boykin and Isaiah McKenzie (knee/foot) also vying for roster spots, Robinson could be on the wrong side of the bubble.

Seeking rebound with Big Blue
Robinson signed a contract with the Giants on Thursday, ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Robinson was cut by the Steelers earlier this offseason in a move to save salary cap space, and he now gets an opportunity to reignite his career in New York, where there's a need for a big-bodied target for Daniel Jones (knee) while Darren Waller's future remains in flux. Malik Nabers, taken sixth overall in April's draft, figures to dominate the Giants' wide receiver opportunities out of the gate, while Darius Slayton (thumb) and Wan'Dale Robinson seem likely to also start in three-wide sets.…read more

Cut by Steelers, as expected
Pittsburgh is releasing Robinson on Friday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Robinson and veteran cornerback Patrick Peterson are both being cut by the Steelers, saving roughly $10 and $7 million against the cap for the team, respectively. Even though he started all 17 games last season and played a hefty 741 offensive snaps, Robinson concluded the 2023 campaign with just 34 catches for 280 yards on 49 targets, without a touchdown.

Probable offseason cut
The Steelers will add $10 million in 2024 cap space if Robinson is released this offseason, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Robinson has one year remaining on his contract but was always a long shot to actually see the money. That's especially true after he somehow managed to produce just 280 receiving yards and no TDs despite starting all 17 games in 2023 and playing 72 percent of Pittsburgh's snaps on offense. If Robinson does stick around, it'll be with a renegotiated contract that puts him much closer to the veteran's minimum than to his currently scheduled salary of $10 million. Even in that scenario, he's…read more

Suffers concussion Monday
Robinson was diagnosed with a concussion during Monday's wild-card loss in Buffalo, Burt Lauten of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: After hitting his helmet on the turf late in the third quarter and staying down on the field for a spell, Robinson went to the locker room to be checked for a head injury.

Limited results again in 2023
Robinson secured 34 of 49 targets for 280 yards over 17 games in 2023.
Analysis: Although Robinson appeared in every game this season, his decline in production continued during his first year in Pittsburgh. He averaged under 10 yards per reception for the first time in his career, and his 280 receiving yards represented a career-low mark over a full season. Part of his struggles can attributed to the Steelers' lack of offensive production for most of the year, but the 30-year-old's results have trended downward over the past three seasons.

Not targeted against Seattle
Robinson wasn't targeted during the Steelers' 30-23 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: Robinson drew at least three targets in each of his four appearances leading up to Week 17, but he wasn't involved in the passing game Sunday as quarterback Mason Rudolph targeted just four pass catchers in the win. While Robinson should continue to see ample playing time during Pittsburgh's regular-season finale next week, he hasn't displayed much fantasy upside this season.

Tallies four receptions in win
Robinson secured all four of his targets for 36 yards during Saturday's 34-11 win over Cincinnati.
Analysis: Pittsburgh's offense was clicking with Mason Rudolph under center Saturday, and Robinson had his highest reception total since Week 5 and his highest yardage total since the regular-season opener. He's tallied double-digit yards in six consecutive games, securing 15 of 18 targets for 126 yards during that time. Despite Saturday's encouraging performance, it seems unlikely that Robinson will be a significant fantasy asset over the final two weeks of the season.

Logs three receptions in defeat
Robinson secured all three of his targets for 19 yards during the Steelers' 30-13 loss to the Colts on Saturday.
Analysis: The Steelers were unable to return to the win column during Saturday's matchup, and Robinson's role remained limited. He's been held below five targets in each of his nine appearances since Pittsburgh's Week 6 bye, and he's secured 13 of 18 targets for 107 yards during that time.

Analysis: Robinson was targeted twice earlier in Thursday's matchup, but his lone reception came on the final play of the game when the Steelers tried to pull off a miracle with a long field and no timeouts. He's now tallied double-digit receiving yards in four consecutive games, securing eight of 11 targets for 71 yards during that time. However, the 30-year-old's results haven't been enough to make him a fantasy-relevant option.

Robinson caught all three of his targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 24-10 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: The veteran wideout caught three or more passes for just the fifth time this year, bringing his total up to 26 receptions through 12 games. All of Robinson's targets came after Kenny Pickett (ankle) left Sunday's game, and with Pickett set to miss some time, Mitch Trubisky is in line to assume the starting duties.

Held to one catch Sunday
Robinson secured his lone target for 11 yards during the Steelers' 16-10 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Analysis: Although the Steelers looked much better offensively Week 12 following the recent firing of offensive coordinator Matt Canada, Robinson remained limited during the victory. While he topped 20 receiving yards in three of his first five appearances with the Steelers, he's secured just six of nine targets for 48 yards over the past six weeks and is unlikely to have much fantasy upside as long as the team's other pass catchers are healthy.

Robinson secured one of two targets for 10 yards during the Steelers' 20-16 win over Tennessee on Thursday.
Analysis: Robinson had some relatively encouraging performances before the Steelers' Week 6 bye while Diontae Johnson was unavailable, but the 30-year-old has been held in check over the last three games now that Johnson is back in action. Across the last three matchups, Robinson has secured two of four targets for 17 yards. He hasn't yet found the end zone in 2023 and doesn't have much upside while the rest of Pittsburgh's receivers are healthy.

Minimal workload in Week 7
Robinson secured his lone target for seven yards during the Steelers' 24-17 win over the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: The 30-year-old put together some relatively encouraging performances over the past few weeks while Diontae Johnson was sidelined, but Robinson's role within the Steelers' offense decreased once Johnson was back in action. Robinson hasn't topped 30 receiving yards in any of the last five games and is unlikely to be a reliable fantasy option now that the team's receiver room is back to full strength.

Five catches in victory
Robinson secured five of nine targets for 29 yards during the Steelers' 17-10 win over the Ravens on Sunday.
Analysis: Robinson finished second on the team in targets in Week 5 with Diontae Johnson (hamstring) still on injured reserve. However, Robinson averaged just 5.8 yards per reception as the team's offense struggled with its efficiency once again. The 30-year-old's target share has been inconsistent in recent weeks, as he had totaled nine targets over the prior three games before logging Sunday's season-best mark in the category. The Steelers have a bye before facing the Rams in Week 7.

Robinson secured one of two targets for eight yards during the Steelers' 30-6 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

Good to go for Week 4
Robinson (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Houston.
Analysis: Robinson made steady progress throughout the week, as he got a limited practice in Thursday after sitting out Wednesday, then upgraded to full participation Friday to avoid an injury designation altogether. The veteran wide receiver has 11 catches for 100 yards on 15 targets through three games with Pittsburgh. Robinson and Calvin Austin should continue to see extra opportunities alongside George Pickens with Diontae Johnson (hamstring ) on injured reserve.

Analysis: Robinson was DNP Wednesday, so this puts him on track to play in Week 4 against the Texans. The Steelers' slot man, Robinson has turned 15 targets into a scoreless 11-100-0 receiving line after three games. He's not a high-percentage fantasy bet in a run-based offense.

Robinson now has two more chances to return to the practice field ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans.

Robinson caught all four of his targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 23-18 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Robinson doubled his production from a week ago, but it still resulted in an unsavory fantasy line. The 30-year-old has struggled to fit in with a developing Pittsburgh offense, even with Diontae Johnson (hamstring) getting hurt in Week 1.

Quiet in elevated role
Robinson finished with two receptions (on three targets) for 12 yards in Monday's 26-22 win over the Browns.
Analysis: Robinson got the start alongside George Pickens (4-127-1) after Diontae Johnson (hamstring) was placed on IR this week. The veteran wideout wound up seeing his targets and production decrease compared to last week's five-catch, 64-yard performance as the No. 3 receiver. The Steelers' schedule softens up after facing two of the league's top pass defenses, so Robinson could experience more success against the Raiders on Sunday.

Leads team in receiving yards
Robinson secured five of eight targets for 64 yards during the Steelers' 30-7 loss to San Francisco on Sunday.
Analysis: Robinson was held in check during the preseason, but he impressed during his regular-season debut with the Steelers. He racked up 53 receiving yards in the fourth quarter after Diontae Johnson (hamstring) was ruled out for the remainder of the game, so Robinson's role in Week 2 will likely depend on Johnson's availability.

Pickett had more luck throwing to returning starters Diontae Johnson, George Pickens and Pat Freiermuth, which isn't exactly a surprise given the expectation of those three being the team's top pass catchers.

Analysis: Robinson worked with the starters during Friday's matchup but wasn't targeted during his first game action with his new club. However, all three of Pittsburgh's top receivers played under 10 snaps, so there weren't many targets to go around early in the game. Robinson has been working from the slot during training camp, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him operate with the starting offense early in the regular season.

Robinson (foot) worked from the slot with the starting offense on the first day of training camp, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Analysis: Robinson missed the 26-10 loss to the Chiefs with what was deemed an ankle injury, but it appears the injury is actually to his foot. The injury-riddled Rams have fallen out of the playoff hunt at 3-8, so they have no reason to rush Robinson's recovery.

Analysis: Even though he's nominally the Rams' No. 1 receiver following Cooper Kupp's (ankle) placement on injured reserve after Week 10, Robinson's fantasy outlook for Week 12 was already looking bleak with Bryce Perkins expected to make his first NFL start in place of injured signal-caller Matthew Stafford (neck/concussion protocol). With the ankle issue having limited his participation in practice all week, Robinson now looks on track to join Kupp and Stafford on the sideline Sunday, though an…read more

Iffy for Week 12
Rams head coach Sean McVay said Robinson (ankle) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: While the Rams played their first game without the injured Cooper Kupp (ankle) in their Week 11 loss to the Saints, Robinson stepped in as the team's new nominal No. 1 wideout and finished with four catches for 47 yards and a touchdown on five targets. Robinson looks to have picked up an ankle injury of his own along the way, with Los Angeles listing him as a limited participant in both of its first two Week 12 injury reports. Even if Robinson is cleared ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff,…read more

Gets limited tag Thursday
Robinson (ankle) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Rams only held a jog-through Thursday, but Robinson would have maintained his activity level from one day prior if they'd held an actual session. His status for Sunday's game at Kansas City thus may come down to how much work he's able to handle Friday, at which point he may be given an injury designation for Week 12. If Robinson is available this weekend, he likely will be on the receiving end of passes from Bryce Perkins with Matthew Stafford (concussion/neck) ruled out and John Wolford…read more

Tending to ankle issue
Robinson was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: With Cooper Kupp (ankle) likely sidelined for the rest of the season, Robinson currently tops the Rams' depth chart at wide receiver. Working with Matthew Stafford and then Bryce Perkins this past Sunday at New Orleans, Robinson reeled in four of five targets for 47 yards and one touchdown. Stafford (concussion/neck) already has been ruled out for Week 12, while John Wolford (neck) joined Robinson as a limited participant Wednesday. Assuming Robinson is able to play through his own health…read more

Finds end zone in loss
Robinson secured four of five targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in the Rams' 27-20 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Robinson tied for the team lead in receptions alongside Tyler Higbee and also checked in second in receiving yards. Robinson found the end zone for the third time this season on a six-yard touchdown grab just before the end of the first half. Robinson is in line to serve as the de facto top target during Cooper Kupp's (ankle) absence, but with Matthew Stafford now back in concussion protocol, it remains to be seen who the veteran wideout will be working with in a Week 12 road showdown against…read more

Looks like new No. 1 wideout
Robinson is expected to settle in as the Rams' new No. 1 receiver beginning with Sunday's game in New Orleans after head coach Sean McVay said Tuesday that Cooper Kupp (ankle) would undergo surgery and head to injured reserve, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Through the first nine games of the season, Kupp has been the lifeblood of an otherwise unimpressive offense, accounting for an NFL-high 35.7 percent of his team's receptions. Though the Rams won't turn to any one player to absorb Kupp's 10.8 targets per game and a more run-heavy approach could be in the offing, pass catchers such as Robinson, tight end Tyler Higbee and wideouts Van Jefferson and Ben Skowronek could all notice at least slight upticks in their volume for as long as Kupp is…read more

Four catches Sunday
Robinson caught four of six targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Robinson's role in the offense seemingly has regulated itself after some rough patches to start the year, as Robinson's yardage totals and targets both were around his season-long averages. For the first time all season, the veteran wideout didn't have a target in the red zone, but that may have been more indicative of the offense as a whole than Robinson being shut out of his normal role as a red-zone threat. With Cooper Kupp (ankle) potentially out for some time, Robinson likely would be…read more

Three grabs in loss
Robinson caught three of five targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Cooper Kupp (8-127-1 on nine targets) was the only Ram who did much of anything in this one, and despite his weak numbers Robinson finished second on the team in receptions and receiving yards. He's caught multiple passes in seven straight games but has topped 60 yards only once during that stretch, making him a tough player to rely on in Week 10 against the Cardinals.

Gains 54 yards in loss
Robinson caught five of seven targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 31-14 loss to San Francisco.
Analysis: Robinson was coming off of his best game of the season last week (5/63/1), and while he couldn't replicate the touchdown, the veteran wideout finally produced usable fantasy lines in consecutive games. Cooper Kupp (ankle) went down with an ankle injury late in the contest, so Robinson could see his role increase significantly if his star teammate is forced to miss any time. Make sure a disgruntled manager didn't drop Robinson after a slow start, as he could be in line for heavy targets if Kupp…read more

Breaks out against Panthers
Robinson caught five of six targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-10 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: It was the veteran wideout's best game so far as a Ram, and Robinson capped his day with a five-yard TD grab in the second quarter that got his team on the board. He won't get a chance to immediately build on this performance with Los Angeles on bye in Week 7, but Robinson is at least showing signs of becoming a key component in the team's passing attack.

Robinson caught three of five targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: It was more of the same for Robinson, who has struggled to make an impact through five games in his tenure with the Rams. Meanwhile, Ben Skowronek has seen a similar number of targets but has been far more efficient, with 18 catches for 181 yards compared to Robinson's 12 catches for 107 yards.

Another dismal performance
Robinson caught two of six targets for seven yards in Monday's 24-9 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Despite seeing the third-most targets on the team, Robinson was only able to bring in two short passes -- another disappointing showing in a season that, outside of a decent Week 2 line (4-53-1), has been a quiet one so far. He was unable to gain separation and was constantly smothered during Monday's game, which has become a theme for the 29-year old wideout. Through roughly a quarter of the season, Robinson's 9-95-1 receiving line hasn't come close to replacing the production of Robert Woods…read more

Disappoints with just two catches
Robinson secured two of five targets for 23 yards during Sunday's 20-12 victory versus the Cardinals.
Analysis: Robinson started the year in dismal fashion with a one-catch game against the Bills, but it looked like he had some momentum after a much more successful Week 2 performance against the Falcons that included his first TD as a Ram. Unfortunately, the veteran wideout regressed Sunday, with the low point coming on a would-be touchdown pass that went right through Robinson's hands. The rapport between him and QB Matthew Stafford just hasn't been developing the way fantasy managers would like,…read more

Shows rapport with Stafford
Robinson recorded four receptions on five targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Robinson didn't post a monstrous line, but it still represented a marked improvement over his output in Week 1. In Week 2, he caught a one-yard touchdown to cap the Rams' first offensive possession, and he also showed some big-play ability by tallying receptions of 29 and 15 yards. Cooper Kupp will dominate targets in the offense, but Robinson showed the potential to serve as the legitimate second option with this performance.

Lackluster team debut Thursday
Robinson brought in one of two targets for 12 yards in the Rams' 31-10 loss to the Bills on Thursday night.
Analysis: Robinson's middling production was fairly emblematic of a lackluster night overall for the Rams offense, which had a difficult time getting in sync against an aggressive Bills defense. The veteran receiver was also the intended target on Matthew Stafford's final pass attempt of the night into the left corner of the end zone -- which was broken up -- and his lack of production is likely at least partly a byproduct of the fact there rarely was time for downfield routes to develop thanks to a…read more

Analysis: Coach Sean McVay held true to his word that he would be holding his starters out of preseason action, which means Robinson's first chance to perform for his new team will be on Thursday, Sept. 8 against the Bills. Robinson was given a three-year, $46.5 million contract in the offseason and will be expected to step in as the complementary piece to Cooper Kupp with the departures of Robert Woods and Odell Beckham (knee). Robinson's 2021 campaign with the Bears was a season to forget, with 38…read more

Analysis: Robinson has earned compliments from teammates Matthew Stafford and Cooper Kupp, as well as coach Sean McVay.

Analysis: Pelissero's initial report puts the deal at $46.5 million -- a $15.5 average annual value -- with nearly two-thirds of the money guaranteed at signing ($30.7 million). Robinson may have had offers with larger AAVs from other teams, but the reigning champs enticed him with the chance to play for a ring as well as the strong contract guarantees.

Analysis: Chicago reportedly won't opt to use the franchise tag on Robinson, who logged the worst statistical season of his career in 2021, excluding the 2017 campaign that saw him suffer a torn ACL in Week 1. After having secured just 38 of 66 targets for 410 yards and one touchdown in 12 appearances, a fresh start could be the best outcome for both Robinson's career and his fantasy prospects. The 28-year-old posted back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons from 2019-20, and if teams around the league are…read more

Quiet in season finale
Robinson caught two passes for 22 yards in the Bears' 31-17 Week 18 loss to the Vikings, and he ended the season with 38 receptions for 410 yards and one touchdown in 13 games.
Analysis: Despite playing in bad situations that often included poor quarterback play throughout his career, Robinson had, by far, the worst season of his career. On just one occasion did he post more than four receptions in a game, and he failed to reach 70 yards in any contest. It's impossible to know if his play simply dropped off, or if his situation on the Bears was too much to overcome. Look for him to be a polarizing player in 2022 fantasy drafts. After playing the year on the franchise tag, he'll…read more

Six targets in victory
Robinson caught four passes for 35 yards in the Bears' 29-3 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Although Robinson was second on the team in targets and receiving yardage, this was the seventh time in 10 games that he's been held to 35 yards or fewer. With just a single touchdown on the season and no games with 70 yards, he'll be a risky fantasy option in Week 18 against the Vikings.

Reveals weight loss due to COVID-19
Robinson said Tuesday that he lost 10 pounds during his recent bout with COVID-19, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: Robinson was away from the Bears starting Dec. 16 through Monday, when they activated him from the reserve/COVID-19 list. He specifically noted Tuesday that his conditioning may not be up to par, a reality that may lead to some practice limitations Wednesday through Friday. It's unclear if Robinson is in danger of missing a sixth game of the season Sunday against the Giants, but the coming days should provide some insight into his Week 17 availability.

He does have one more chance to get on the field this week, but if he doesn't he seems likely to miss a third game in a row.

Robinson caught four of six targets for 68 yards in Monday night's 29-27 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Robinson had just three yards in the first half, but he came alive when it mattered most in the second. Chicago's top wideout went for 39 yards on a critical third-and-two play with two minutes remaining, setting up a go-ahead touchdown the next play. In doing so, Robinson actually accumulated his highest yardage total in any game this season, sending him into the Bears' bye week with some positive momentum.

Analysis: Robinson secured two of his receptions on third downs to move the chains, but he had another forgettable fantasy performance. He's been held to 35 yards or fewer in all but two games this season while finding the end zone just once, and fantasy managers need to carefully weigh out their wide receiver options when deciding whether to use him when setting weekly lineups.

Analysis: After kicking off Week 8 prep with a limited session, Robinson managed to log every rep one day later.

While it hasn't inhibited him from playing -- he's logged between 82 and 94 percent of offensive snaps in six of seven games this season -- Robinson has yet to have a breakout performance, as he's managed just a 23-250-1 line on 40 targets.

Analysis: In what's been a lost fantasy season for Robinson, this was his worst performance of the season, and it didn't help that the Buccaneers put heavy pressure on Justin Fields for most the game. He's been held to 35 yards or fewer in five of seven games while not finding the end zone since Week 2. Without a performance of 65 yards on the season, it's becoming increasingly difficult to place him in weekly lineups with confidence.

Playing Week 7
Robinson (ankle) is active for Sunday's game in Tampa Bay, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: After sitting out Wednesday's practice, Robinson logged back-to-back limited sessions to wrap up Week 7 prep, which was one more than he managed one week prior. Last Sunday against the Packers, he received a season-high 93 percent share of the snaps on offense but turned his seven targets into just four catches for 53 yards. Robinson will seek out a better outing this Sunday against a Buccaneers defense that has surrendered the fourth-most receptions (91, tied with the Bengals) to wide…read more

In line to play Sunday
Robinson (ankle) is expected to play Sunday at Tampa Bay, despite being listed as questionable, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Aside from his lost last season in Jacksonville in 2017 -- he made just one appearance due to a torn ACL -- Robinson otherwise has missed nine games in his seven other campaigns. He also put in more work on the practice field this week than during Week 6 prep before logging a season-high 93 percent of the offensive snaps in last Sunday's loss to the Packers. Assuming he gets clearance ahead of the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, Robinson will be facing a Buccaneers defense that has tied for the…read more

Listed as questionable
Robinson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Robinson was a limited practice participant Thursday and Friday after sitting out Wednesday. That's one more limited practice than he managed last week, when he ultimately played through a questionable tag and caught four of seven targets for 53 yards in a 24-14 loss to the Packers. Robinson likely will play through the injury again, with his status to be confirmed when the Bears release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

Bumps up to limited Thursday
Robinson (ankle) was limited at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Robinson got on the practice field earlier than a week ago, when he managed just one capped showing Friday. As a result, it appears he's a bit healthier this time around and has a better chance to avoid the final Week 7 injury report. Robinson still suited up this past Sunday against the Packers and logged a season-high 93 percent of the Bears' offensive snaps on his way to four catches (on seven targets) for 53 yards.

Misses practice with ankle issue
Robinson (ankle) was a non-participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: The same injury kept Robinson out of the Bears' first two Week 6 practices, but he returned to the field last Friday as a limited participant to take a questionable tag into the team's matchup with the Packers. He proceeded to suit up and play 93 percent of the offensive snaps in the Bears' 24-14 loss, recording four receptions for 53 yards on the day. Assuming he gets back on the practice field in some capacity by the end of the week, Robinson should be good to go for this Sunday's game at…read more

Surpasses 50 yards in defeat
Robinson caught four passes for 53 yards in the Bears' 24-14 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Analysis: During the first half, it appeared that Robinson was on his way to another terrible performance, but with the team trailing in the second half, Fields made was able to connect three additional times with Chicago's top receiver. As a result, Robinson reached the 50-yard mark for the second time this season. Unless his production shows significant improvement, fantasy managers will need to consider their lineup options carefully before slotting him in.

Active in Week 6
Robinson (ankle) is active for Sunday's game versus the Packers.
Analysis: Robinson got on the practice field just once during Week 6 prep due to an ankle issue -- he was limited at Friday's practice -- but he'll gut it out in this divisional matchup. In seven career contests against Green Bay, he's been fairly productive, compiling a 37-525-2 receiving line on 74 targets across seven matchups.

Robinson (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Robinson missed practice Wednesday and Thursday before logging a limited session Friday. Fortunately for those considering Robinson in Week 6 fantasy lineups, the Bears kick off a 1 p.m. ET on Sunday. The wideout has yet to forge much of a connection with quarterback Justin Fields through the rookie's first three starts, recording nine receptions for 122 yards and no touchdowns on 14 targets across those contests.

Practices, listed as questionable
Robinson (ankle) returned to a limited practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Analysis: The Bears list 10 players as questionable, including some who appear in no real danger of missing the game. While there hasn't been any report of Robinson's ankle injury being serious, back-to-back missed practices Wednesday and Thursday did create some level of concern. Returning to the field Friday is a good sign, but it's still best to treat him as a game-time decision ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff unless the Bears provide some kind of hint/confirmation before Sunday.

Logs another DNP
Robinson (ankle) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Since arriving in Chicago as a free agent in March 2018, Robinson has missed just three of 53 games. It's unclear if his current ankle concern will result in a fourth DNP, but it isn't especially encouraging that he hasn't been able to practice this week. Robinson will have one more chance to do so before the Bears will be required to give him a designation or remove it entirely for Sunday's contest against the Packers.

Bothered by ankle injury
Robinson didn't practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury.
Analysis: Robinson has avoided the injury report so far this season until Wednesday, while No. 2 wide receiver Darnell Mooney (groin) has been a mainstay. With both players banged up at the moment, it'll be interesting to see in what capacity they'll be out there Sunday against the Packers, assuming they're active. Robinson has two more sessions this week in which to fit in some activity and set himself up to be available.

Comes up small
Robinson caught four passes for 32 yards in the Bears' 20-9 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
Analysis: With the Bears playing with a lead from the second quarter on, Justin Fields threw only 20 passes, and Robinson tied for the team lead with five targets. However, Chicago didn't ask Fields to turn the ball loose downfield often, so most of Robinson's catches were designed to simply move the chains. With four games of 35 yards or fewer and a season high of 63 yards, it's fair to question whether the limitations of the Chicago passing offense will continue to make this a lost fantasy season for…read more

Robinson caught three passes for 63 yards in the Bears' 24-14 win over the Lions on Sunday.
Analysis: Robinson had one short catch in the first half of action, but fortunately, Justin Fields was able to connect with him on a pair of passes over 20 yards after the break to give the receiver a decent fantasy performance. On the afternoon, Robinson was targeted just three times, but with the Bears controlling the game, Justin Fields only attempted 17 passes.

Forgettable performance
Robinson caught two passes for 27 yards in the Bears' 26-6 loss to the Browns on Sunday.
Analysis: Although Robinson led the team with six targets, Justin Fields was completely overmatched, and the offense was so bad that Robinson's 27 yards was the highest total on the team. With 35 or fewer yards in each of his first three games, it's fair to be concerned with his slow start, but with a long history of high-level performance in non-optimal situations, it's likely Robinson gets back on track as early as next week against the Lions.

Disappointing yardage total
Robinson caught two passes for 24 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 20-17 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Analysis: Robinson scored on the first drive of the game but didn't make his next catch until the fourth quarter. However, his last two targets of the game were in the end zone on passes from Justin Fields with one being broken up, and the other one he dropped. Despite the disappointing performance, Robinson should continue to be one of the most productive wide receivers in the league, as he'll likely see solid target volume in most games.

Does little with 11 targets
Robinson had six receptions (11 targets) for 35 yards in Sunday's 34-14 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Robinson and the entirety of the Bears' passing attack could not get anything going against the Rams' stellar defense. The high volume of targets is a positive sign that the 28-year-old is still the top option for Andy Dalton (or Justin Fields) this season. While this was a frustrating performance for Robinson's fantasy managers, it is worth noting that he had to deal with shutdown corner Jalen Ramsey, who held Robinson to just one catch when they met last season, for the majority of the…read more

Robinson and other key skill-position starters aren't expected to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Titans, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: It sounds like coach Matt Nagy will rest most of his starters apart from the offensive linemen, giving Justin Fields some protection in a game where he should play most or all of the first half. Robinson, along with Andy Dalton, figures to be one of the starters who is held out in preparation for Week 1 against Jalen Ramsey and the Rams.

Stuck with franchise tender
Robinson will play 2021 under a franchise tag, as he didn't sign a multi-year contract before the Thursday deadline, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Reports from the past week suggested it was a long shot for Robinson and the Bears to work anything out. The soon-to-be 28-year-old thus stands to make $17.98 million this upcoming season, before hitting free agency (or receiving a second franchise tag) next spring.

Robinson and the Bears haven't made significant progress toward a long-term contract, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Barring a last-minute agreement, Robinson will play out 2021 under a one-year, $17.98 million franchise tender, hoping to hit free agency next offseason.

Not discussing extension
Robinson and the Bears haven't discussed a long-term contract since September, potentially setting him up to receive a franchise tag in the coming weeks, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
Analysis: The window to apply franchise tags runs from Feb. 23 through March 9, with the number for most wide receivers expected to be around $16-17 million. Robinson, however, would be a bit more expensive, as tag rules require the Bears to pay him 120 percent of his 2020 cap hit ($15 million), which would work out to $18 million. The Bears can use the tag even if they don't intend to keep Robinson, setting the table for a tag-and-trade to net draft picks or another player.

Robinson caught 10 passes for 103 yards in the Bears' 41-17 victory over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Analysis: Facing a decimated Jaguars secondary, Robinson was consistently open, and he and Mitch Trubisky connected on 10 of 13 pass attempts. However, even though the team was deep in the red zone on numerous occasions, Robinson was largely ignored, keeping him from adding a touchdown to his impressive yardage total. He's averaging over 100 yards over the last three games, and he'll have a Week 17 matchup against a Packers defense he posted 74 yards and two touchdowns against in Week 12.

Robinson caught four passes for 83 yards in Chicago's 33-27 victory over the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: With the Bears leading this game throughout, the team attempted just 21 passes, leading to Robinson seeing just five targets. However, a 35-yard catch and run in the fourth quarter helped him salvage his fantasy day. He's now posted at least 74 yards in five of his last six games, and he'll be an excellent fantasy option in Week 16 against a weak Jacksonville defense that has a depleted secondary.

Although this was his first 100-yard game since Week 4, he's posted at least 70 yards in all but three games this year, and with a very favorable schedule over the next two weeks, he'll be in position to help fantasy managers win during the playoffs.

A knee injury again is to blame for Robinson's limitations this week, but it didn't stop him from churning out six catches (on seven targets) for 75 yards this past Sunday against the Lions. He'll aim to get rid of his designation before a Week 14 matchup with the Texans.

Since Robinson is on the field in some capacity to begin Week 14, fantasy managers don't have real reason yet to worry about his status. The 27-year-old has a trio of favorable matchups to close out December, as he'll face the vulnerable pass defenses of the Texans, Vikings and Jaguars in Weeks 14 through 16.

Robinson caught six passes for 75 yards in Chicago's 34-30 loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Analysis: With the Bears controlling the game until the final two minutes, they ran a balanced offense, and as a result, Robinson was targeted just seven times, which led to a solid but unspectacular fantasy performance. Although he hasn't topped 90 yards since Week 4, he'll have three favorable matchups in the fantasy playoffs, and he should continue to be a strong option in all formats during that stretch.

Hurts knee in practice
Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that Robinson was listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions after injuring his knee in Friday's practice, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: Robinson's late-week addition to the injury report is unwelcome news, but the star receiver isn't believed to be dealing with anything overly significant. That said, while Nagy said he didn't think the injury would keep Robinson sidelined for Sunday's game, he was unwilling to say for certain that the 27-year-old would suit up Week 13. Robinson could be put through a pregame workout early Sunday before the Bears decide on his status shortly before the 1 p.m. ET kickoff.

Deemed questionable with knee issue
Robinson is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions with a knee injury.
Analysis: Considering Robinson hadn't been included on the Bears' first two injury reports of the week, he was a surprising inclusion among the team's nine questionable players for Week 13. Robinson, who was previously questionable Week 10 with a knee injury before suiting up in a loss to the Vikings, was at least able to practice in a limited fashion Friday, offering some optimism that he'll be ready to go once game day arrives.

Scores twice in defeat
Robinson caught eight passes for 74 yards and two touchdowns in Chicago's 41-25 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Analysis: With the Bears falling way behind on the scoreboard early, the defensive backs made it a point to keep Robinson in front of them, keeping him from any long gains. However, there was plenty of room underneath, and after receiving 13 targets, he ended up with one of his best fantasy performances of the campaign. Robinson has posted at least 70 yards in all but three games this season, and he continues to have one of the highest scoring floors of all wide receivers.

Leads team in receiving
Robinson caught six passes on nine targets for 43 yards in Chicago's 19-13 loss to Minnesota on Monday.
Analysis: Robinson was mostly targeted on short routes as Nick Foles was under consistent pressure, forcing the passes to come out quickly. Although Robinson was productive in the first half, the team was unable to sustain consistent offense after halftime, keeping him from having a better performance. Over the season, Robinson's only posted fewer than 53 yards on three occasions, but he may find himself working with his third QB of the year coming out of Chicago's Week 11 bye if the injury Foles…read more

Suiting up Week 10
Robinson (knee) is active for Monday's game versus the Vikings.
Analysis: After being listed as limited on the Bears' injury reports Thursday through Saturday, Robinson was tagged with a 'questionable' designation. Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio seemed to clear up Robinson's status earlier Monday, and indeed the team has cleared him to play Week 10. Robinson has a nice matchup on tap against a Minnesota secondary that is banged up and has given up 9.3 yards per target and an NFL-worst 16 touchdowns to wide receivers in eight contests this season.

Trending in right direction for MNF
Robinson (knee) is expected to suit up against the Vikings on Monday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: Robinson is officially listed as questionable for Monday Night Football due to a knee injury, but it sounds as though the Bears are preparing for their No. 1 wideout to be available. If he's indeed active, Robinson will look to take advantage of his matchup against a Minnesota secondary that's surrendered 287.9 passing yards per game (30th). Though he's only scored three times this season, Robinson has offered steady fantasy production by accumulating at least 70 yards in all but two contests.

Officially questionable
The Bears have listed Robinson (knee) as questionable for Monday's matchup with the Vikings.
Analysis: Robinson practiced in limited fashion for the third consecutive day Saturday and is looking like a true game-time decision. It should be noted the Bears have a Week 11 bye, so they could opt to err on the side of caution with their star receiver so he can have an extra week to recover. If he does ultimately sit the contest out, Darnell Mooney and Anthony Miller would be the team's primary pass catchers, while Riley Ridley and Dwayne Harris could also see some extra work.

Limited again Friday
Robinson (knee) practiced in a limited capacity Friday.
Analysis: Robinson has been leaned on heavily this season, leading all Bears skill-position players with an 86-percent share of the snaps on offense. His resulting stat line through nine games reads 57 catches (on 86 targets) for 712 yards and three touchdowns, which is outpacing his 1,100-yard campaign from 2019. Still, with a knee injury in tow, there's some question about Robinson's availability for Monday's contest against the Vikings.

Managing knee issue
Robinson (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Robinson's limited Thursday session may have occurred partially for maintenance reasons, given that he's logged at least 95 percent of offensive snaps in back-to-back contests. The star wideout will have two more opportunities to upgrade his practice level before the Bears have to tag him with an injury designation, so there's not yet substantial reason for concern about his availability for Monday night's divisional contest against the Vikings.

Targeted nine times in loss
Robinson brought in seven of nine targets for 81 yards in the Bears' 24-17 loss to the Titans on Sunday.
Analysis: With the Bears missing multiple starters along the offensive line, Nick Foles had little time to throw, but after hauling in a contested 27-yard pass late in the game, Robinson finished the contest with with a solid fantasy performance despite the difficult circumstances. Although he's only scored three times this season, he's posted at least 70 yards in all but two games, and he remains as one of the most steady weekly producers at wide receiver.

Breaks scoring drought
Robinson caught six passes for 87 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 26-23 overtime loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Robinson made a great adjustment on his route to beat double coverage on a 24-yard touchdown in the first half, but he was largely quiet until the Bears were forced to play from behind late in the fourth quarter and overtime, which allowed him to pile up a solid yardage total. Even though he scored his first touchdown in four weeks, he's posted at least 70 yards in all but two games this season, and he continues to perform as a steady top-15 option at wide receiver.

Clears concussion protocol
Robinson has cleared concussion protocol and is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Saints.
Analysis: This is a bit of a surprising development considering Robinson was listed as doubtful following Friday's final practice report, but the star wideout evidently cleared concussion protocol and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's contest. Robinson was held out of practice all week and the team only "expects him to play" as opposed to simply saying he'll be ready to go, so there's at least some reason to still check in on his status before the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. That being said,…read more

Downgraded to doubtful
Robinson (concussion) has been downgraded to doubtful for Sunday's game against the Saints, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Analysis: The initial 'questionable' designation did seem a bit optimistic, considering Robinson was held out of practice all week and will be just six days removed from suffering a concussion come Sunday. Javon Wims is the favorite to fill in as a starting wideout, but it'll likely be a team effort to replace Robinson's average of 10 targets per game. A 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff means official confirmation on Robinson's active/inactive status may not be available until around 3:00 p.m.

Questionable for Sunday
Robinson missed another practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints.
Analysis: It wouldn't be totally unheard of for a player to pass through the concussion protocol and play in a game without logging any practice time, but Robinson faces the added challenge of doing it on a short week, having suffered the brain injury during Monday's loss to the Rams. A 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff will make things more difficult for fantasy managers if the wideout's availability comes down to a game-time decision, and there's also potential for strong winds to impact passing in the Saints-Bears…read more

DNP on Thursday
Robinson (concussion) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Monday's late-game injury has resulted in a concussion and no practice reps for Robinson so far this week. With no clear progress through the protocol for head injuries yet, he appears to be in danger of missing Sunday's game against the Saints. Robinson's listing on Friday's practice report may have a lot of bearing on his ability to suit up this weekend.

Robinson was directed to the sidelines after taking a hit to the upper body in Chicago's 24-10 loss to the Rams on Monday.
Analysis: With a few minutes left in the game, the referees instructed Robinson to leave the field, and while he walked off under his own power he didn't return for the last drive of the game. Before leaving the game, he'd caught four passes for 70 yards, including a 42-yard bomb down the middle of the field.

Targeted nine times in win
Robinson caught five passes for 53 yards in Chicago's 23-16 victory over the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: With the Bears leading for most of the contest, the passing attack was very conservative, and Robinson was the only Chicago receiver to catch a pass of longer than 20 yards. Although the team had the ball on multiple occasions in the red zone, Robinson failed to see an end-zone target. This was the first time since Week 2 that he's failed to reach 90 receiving yards in a game, and despite the touchdown blanking Sunday, Robinson retains one of the highest week-to-week fantasy floors in the…read more

Analysis: Robinson absorbed an outstanding 16 targets, and he continued to catch just about everything thrown his way, though he did misplay one pass that he popped in the air, leading to an interception. On the season, he's yet to see fewer than nine targets in any game while posting at least 74 yards in all but one contest, and he'll continue to be have one of the highest scoring floors of any wide receiver in the league.

Robinson caught seven passes for 101 yards and a touchdown in Chicago's 19-11 loss to the Colts on Sunday.
Analysis: Aside from a leaping 27-yard catch in the first half, Robinson was very quiet until the last drive of the game, when Nick Foles kept firing the ball to his star receiver, not only padding his yardage total but getting him his only score of the afternoon.

In addition to his score, he was ruled to have notched an additional touchdown, but replay overturned the call, keeping him from turning in a massive fantasy performance.

Disappointing performance
Robinson caught three passes for 33 yards in the Bears' 17-13 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Even though the Bears played conservatively in the second half while protecting a double-digit lead, Robinson still saw nine targets, which was six more than any of his teammates. Although he was busy, a number of erratic passes from Mitch Trubisky led to multiple missed connections and a poor fantasy performance. However, with upcoming matchups against the Falcons and Colts, expect Robinson to return to the levels of performance that fantasy managers expected when selecting him on draft day.

While opposing front offices reached out to Chicago upon learning of Robinson's discontent, Rapoport notes that the drama has instead prompted a "renewed effort" on the Bears' part to get an extension done for the 27-year-old.

Robinson caught five of nine targets for 74 yards in the Bears' 27-23 win over Detroit on Sunday.
Analysis: Robinson had to deal with a number of erratic passes, but as usual, he hauled in a number of contested catches to post a solid fantasy performance. He was also targeted in the end zone, but the ball was slightly overthrown. With a solid weekly scoring floor along with a consistently high target share, Robinson should continue to be a top-12 receiver in weekly lineups.

The development backs up coach Matt Nagy's official stance on the matter, calling his level of concern "low" last Tuesday, per Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com.

Analysis: Robinson has been held out of practice since Sunday with what's believed to be a minor ankle injury. He's entering the final season of a three-year contract, and his 2019 performance would seem to make him a prime candidate for an extension, even though the Bears already have a slew of significant financial commitments for 2021 and beyond.

He earned his money (and then some) last season with the second 1,000-yard campaign of his career, and he said in January that he'd like to stay in Chicago beyond 2020.

Robinson is willing to sign an extension, noting that he still hopes to play the rest of his career with the Bears, Adam Hoge of WGN Radio 720 AM Chicago reports.

His next deal presumably will be larger in terms of average annual value, but that doesn't necessarily mean the 2020 cap charge will increase if he signs an extension.

Analysis: In his second season following knee surgery, Robinson re-emerged as a fantasy force by posting his first 1,000-yard season since 2015 while posting his second-highest touchdown total of his six-year career.

He did have a chance to score on a fourth-down play in the red zone when he was targeted in the end zone, but the pass was underthrown.

Although he'll face a Kansas City defense in Week 16 that has done well to limit opposing wide receivers this season, he'll continue to be a strong fantasy option to close out the season.

Pair of touchdown grabs in win
Robinson secured five of eight targets for 48 yards and two touchdowns in the Bears' 31-24 win over the Cowboys on Thursday.
Analysis: Robinson extended his touchdown streak to three games with scoring grabs of five and eight yards in the second quarter. The veteran had totaled at least 86 yards in three of his four games prior to Thursday, so his yardage tally against the Cowboys represented a downturn. Nevertheless, Robinson appears to have a locked-in target share, making him a valued fantasy asset alongside an improving Mitchell Trubisky in a Week 15 showdown against the Packers a week from Sunday.

Worst performance of season
Robinson caught one pass for six yards in the Bears' 22-14 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
Analysis: Despite facing one of the weaker pass defenses in the league, Mitchell Trubisky threw for just 125 yards, which certainly limited any upside for Robinson. He had an opportunity for potential long touchdown after he ran past the cornererback, but Trubisky underthrew the pass, resulting in an incompletion. This was the first time he posted fewer than 60 yards since Week 2, and he still should be considered a solid weekly lineup option.
