Demarcus Robinson Could See More Involvement With Teammates Injured
Demarcus Robinson's three catches for 39 yards in Week 5 belied his utilization in the team's 26-23 win over the Rams. Robinson saw seven targets and ran 39 routes, one more than the game's leading receiver, Kendrick Bourne. Ricky Pearsall (knee) and Jauan Jennings (ankle, ribs) were both absent from that contest due to injuries, which pushed Robinson up the depth chart in his second game of the season. Pearsall has already been declared out for Week 6, and Jennings is listed as questionable. If Jennings joins Pearsall on the shelf, then Robinson would see another game of heavy use and with it the opportunity for greater production than he put up last Thursday. Robinson lies outside WR5 territory but would be upgraded if Jennings is scratched and quarterback Mac Jones' (knee, oblique) own injuries don't prevent him from starting.
