Robinson secured two of four targets for 19 yards during Sunday's 28-22 victory against the Patriots.
Besides the target-hogging duo of Cooper Kupp (6-106-2) and Puka Nacua (7-123-1), Robinson and Tutu Atwell were the only wideouts to see any passes come their way. Robinson didn't manage to do much with those targets, however, and his 6-94-2 line from Week 9 is starting to look more like an outlier with Kupp and Nacua rolling. It'll be hard to trust Robinson in fantasy lineups against the Eagles in Week 12.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Grabs one catch on MNF
Rotowire
Robinson had one reception (on five targets) for 23 yards in Monday's 23-15 loss to Miami.
Robinson overcame minor toe and hip injuries in order to suit up as the Rams' third receiver in Monday's defeat. The veteran wideout couldn't replicate his strong output from the previous two weeks with both Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp active against the Dolphins. Expect Robinson to continue operating as Matthew Stafford's third or fourth option when the Rams visit the Patriots on Sunday.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: All cleared for Monday
Rotowire
Robinson (toe/hip) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Monday's contest against the Dolphins, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Jordan Whittington and Robinson were each cleared of their respective injury designations, which means the Rams will be at full capacity at wide receiver for one of the few times this season. Expect Robinson to see less work than last week, when he caught the game-winning touchdown, in part because Puka Nacua will be back after being ejected early in the Week 9 win over the Seahawks.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Returns in limited fashion
Rotowire
Robinson (toe/hip) practiced in a limited capacity Friday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
When Sean McVay touched on Robinson on Thursday, he relayed to Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic that the wide receiver wouldn't practice in the ensuing session but should be OK to play Monday against the Dolphins. Increasing his activity level one day later is giving Robinson a chance to back up McVay's words, and the former will have one more chance to get back to full participation Saturday before the Rams potentially tag him with a designation for Week 10.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
Let's see if Robinson can continue to find the end zone. In his past two games, Robinson has four touchdowns with eight catches for 129 yards on 12 targets. He's scored twice in each game, and before you say that's tough to trust, let's look at last season. Robinson scored four touchdowns in his final five games in 2023 while playing as the No. 3 receiver behind Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp, so maybe he can keep this up. The Dolphins pass defense is nothing to fear, and I would start Robinson as a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in deeper leagues.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: No practice Thursday
Rotowire
Coach Sean McVay said Robinson (toe) won't practice Thursday, but the wide receiver should be fine for Monday's game against the Dolphins, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Robinson has been on a scoring binge since Week 5, posting a 12-166-5 line on 20 targets over the last four games. Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua have been back in action for the last two contests, but Nacua's ejection this past Sunday in Seattle may have aided in Robinson's two-TD day. As for his health, Robinson has two more practices remaining this week in which to put himself in a position to play in Week 10, which is something that McVay seemingly expects him to do.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Week 10 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
In his past two games, Robinson has four touchdowns with eight catches for 129 yards on 12 targets. He's scored twice in each game, and before you say that's tough to trust, let's look at last season. Robinson scored four touchdowns in his final five games in 2023 while playing as the No. 3 receiver behind Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp, so maybe he can keep this up. He's worth adding to see for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAB.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Scores winning TD
Rotowire
Robinson had six receptions on nine targets for 94 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Sunday's 26-20 overtime win over Seattle.
Robinson saw his role elevated following Puka Nacua's early ejection in Sunday's victory. The 30-year-old Robinson cashed in an early second-half touchdown before finishing off the Seahawks with a 39-yard score in overtime. Robinson should revert to the Rams' third wideout role against the Dolphins next Sunday despite catching four touchdowns over his last two contests.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Just one grab
Rotowire
Robinson secured one of three targets for nine yards during Sunday's 20-15 victory over the Raiders.
Robinson tied with Tyler Johnson for the most playing time among wideouts, with 50 of 55 snaps played on offense, but Johnson (seven targets, four catches for 57 yards) and Tutu Atwell (nine targets, six catches for 51 yards) commanded the lion's share of Matthew Stafford's attention. Even with Jordan Whittington (shoulder) limited to just nine snaps and no targets, Robinson's role didn't expand, and his usage likely will continue to decrease as Cooper Kupp (ankle) is expected to return for a Week 8 contest against the Vikings.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Tallies first touchdown
Rotowire
Robinson recorded three receptions on five targets for 28 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Packers.
Robinson continued to see his role fade relative to Tutu Atwell and Jordan Whittington. However, he contributed a few key catches, the most important of which was a one-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter that got the Rams within one score. Despite the key reception, he has failed to reach 50 yards in all but one game on the season.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Logs full practice Thursday
Rotowire
Robinson (hip) practiced in full Thursday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
One day removed from logging a capped session Wednesday, Robinson returned to full participation, paving the way for him to continue being a part of the Rams receiving corps Sunday against the Packers. With WRs Puka Nacua (knee) on injured reserve and Cooper Kupp (ankle) sidelined, Robinson hasn't been lacking in offensive snaps this season, earning at least 85 percent in all four games. Still, Robinson has mustered just a 9-161-0 line on 18 targets for the season while Tutu Atwell and Jordan Whittington have taken on larger target shares the past few contests.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Limited by hip injury
Rotowire
Robinson practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday due to a hip injury.
Just as head coach Sean McVay told Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site on Monday, Robinson is operating with a cap on his practice reps this week, only the listed injury is to his hip and not his groin. In any case, Robinson's status will be one to watch as the week goes on to see if he may head into the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Turns one catch into 32 yards
Rotowire
Robinson caught one of four targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the 49ers.
Robinson filled in for a undermanned Rams receiving corps against a division rival. The former Chief, who had two targets in Week 2, still lacks the consistency necessary to be a must-start option in standard fantasy leagues. Robinson should have use in deeper formats heading into Sunday's tilt against the Bears.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
The Rams need someone to step up with Puka Nacua (knee) and Cooper Kupp (ankle) injured, and Robinson will hopefully be a go-to target for Matthew Stafford. Jordan Whittington, Tyler Johnson, and Tutu Atwell are also potential No. 3 Fantasy receivers in deeper leagues, but Robinson should have the best rapport with Stafford and the most upside in Week 3 against the 49ers. In his past three home games, Robinson has 12 catches for 181 yards and three touchdowns, and he scored at least 14.7 PPR points in each outing. San Francisco has also allowed four receivers to score at least 12 PPR points in two games this year.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Leading injury-riddled WR room
Rotowire
Robinson is preparing for a larger role with Puka Nacua (knee) on injured reserve and Cooper Kupp (ankle) expected to miss multiple games, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
Robinson has only six catches for 92 yards this season after a nice run of performances in the No. 3 receiver role in 2023, but he should start to draw more looks while playing alongside Tyler Johnson, Jordan Whittington and Tutu Atwell instead of targets hogs like Nacua and Kupp. The issue for fantasy purposes is efficiency, especially with the Rams already losing two starting offensive linemen to injured reserve and now drawing a tough Week 3 matchup against the rival 49ers.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Leading receiver on four targets
Rotowire
Robinson had two receptions (four targets) for 50 yards in Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Cardinals.
Robinson finished as the Rams' leading receiver after star wideout Cooper Kupp (ankle) was knocked out of Sunday's tilt in the first half. The latter was spotted in a walking boot following the blowout loss, which doesn't bode well for Kupp's availability for Sunday's upcoming matchup against the 49ers. Robinson could lead a barebones Rams receiving unit in yardage (like he did in Sunday's contest) in Week 3 due to Puka Nacua (knee) already mending on injured reserve.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
With Puka Nacua (knee) out, Cooper Kupp should dominate targets from Matthew Stafford, but Robinson and Tyler Johnson should also benefit. I'm going with Robinson over Johnson for now since Robinson was with the Rams last season and should have a better rapport with Stafford. Last year, Robinson scored at least 13.2 PPR points in each of his final five games. And in Week 1 against the Lions, Robinson had four catches for 42 yards on seven targets. Johnson also did well with five catches for 79 yards on seven targets, and his role will expand with Nacua out. Consider Robinson a potential flex option in PPR in Week 2.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Week 2 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Puka Nacua (knee) will miss at least four weeks, and we'll see how the Rams use Robinson and Tyler Johnson (1 percent rostered) as replacements. I give Robinson the slight edge given his role with the Rams, and last season he scored at least 13.2 PPR points in each of his final five games in the regular season. In Week 1 against the Lions, Robinson had four catches for 42 yards on seven targets. Johnson also did well with five catches for 79 yards on seven targets, and his role will expand with Nacua out. Robinson is worth 10 percent of your remaining FAB, and Johnson is worth up to 5 percent.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Grabs four receptions Sunday
Rotowire
Robinson brought in four of seven targets for 42 yards in Sunday's overtime loss to the Lions.
Robinson earned a spot on the Rams' Week 1 roster after serving as a backup in 2023. The long-time Kansas City Chief saw his role immediately increase after starter Puka Nacua (knee) had to be carted off the field in the middle of Sunday's 26-20 defeat. Cooper Kupp (21 targets) benefited the most from his teammate's absence, while Tyler Johnson (seven targets) also absorbed some of Nacua's workload in the second half. If the latter is forced to miss next Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Robinson could see a temporary boost in fantasy value and become a viable pickup in deeper formats.

Rams' Demarcus Robinson: On track for No. 3 job
Rotowire
Robinson has been "one of the stars" of Rams training camp and remains on track for the No. 3 receiver role, according to Cameron DaSilva of Rams Wire.
Tutu Atwell was given a chance to compete for the No. 3 spot but apparently hasn't done much with the opportunity. He previously lost the role to Robinson late last season, which led to a five-game stretch Weeks 13-17 in which Robinson scored four TDs while averaging 4.2 catches 63.8 yards on 6.8 targets per game. Robinson then re-signed on a one-year, $5 million contract in the offseason, setting him up for steady playing time in an offense that always ranks near the top of the league in percentage of passes thrown to WRs (rather than other positions). Granted, Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua will see a lot more of those passes than Robinson, making it difficult to match his late-season production from last year.
