• Lions' Allen Robinson: Two-yard catch in win

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Robinson caught his only target for two yards in Sunday's 24-14 win over the Packers. 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.

• Lions' Allen Robinson: Increased role expected

  17D ago • By RotoWire

  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. 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.

• Lions' Allen Robinson: Signed to active roster

  The Lions signed Robinson off their practice squad Thursday. 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 Raymond and Isaiah Williams (abdomen) for any reps that linger at receiver.

• Allen Robinson: Goes back to practice squad

  Robinson reverted to Detroit's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. 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.

  The Lions elevated Robinson from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday. 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.
