Mark Robinson: Let go by Jets
The Jets waived Mark Robinson on Saturday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.Robinson's removal from the Jets' 53-man roster coincides with Ja'Markis Weston (groin) from injured reserve. Robinson primarily played on special teams and logged five tackles (four solo) through the first six games of the regular season. The 2022 seventh-rounder could remain in New York as a member of the Jets' practice squad if he's not claimed off waivers by another team.

Jets' Mark Robinson: Signed by Jets
The New York Jets signed Mark Robinson from the Patriots practice squad to the active roster Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.Robinson was elevated from the Patriots' practice squad to the active roster in each of the first three games of the regular season, accruing three tackles (two solo) while playing exclusively on special teams. Robinson's addition to the Jets' active roster is a much needed one, given that fellow outside linebackers Quincy Williams (shoulder) and Marcelino McCrary-Ball (hamstring) were placed on injured reserve Tuesday. For as long as Williams and McCrary-Ball are sidelined, Robinson should work in a rotational role with rookie fifth-rounder Francisco Mauigoa and Cam Jones.

Steelers' Mark Robinson: Likely to take on starting role
Mark Robinson will likely move into a starting role after Kwon Alexander sustained a torn Achilles' tendon during Sunday's win over the Packers, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.Robinson handled increased snaps Sunday after Alexander exited the game early, and the 2022 seventh-rounder will likely see even more playing time moving forward. Robinson tallied just five solo tackles over the first eight games of the season but racked up three tackles (two solo) during Sunday's win over Green Bay. Elandon Roberts should also see an uptick in playing time for the Pittsburgh Steelers over the second half of the season.

Steelers' Mark Robinson: Converted LB goes to Pittsburgh
The Pittsburgh Steelers selected Mark Robinson in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 225th overall.Robinson played running back at FCS Southeast Missouri State before transferring to Ole Miss and switching to linebacker for the 2021 season. He checked in on the smaller side of linebackers at 5-foot-11, 235 pounds, but he showed enough potential at the new position with 91 tackles (tied for second on the team), 5.5 tackles for loss and three sacks through 13 games. He'll likely stick to special teams as a rookie considering the big names Pittsburgh already has at linebacker.
