Is Allen Robinson out for the season? Should I pickup Van Jefferson for Week 13? Read the latest fantasy football injury update and waiver wire outlook.
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Allen Robinson has been far from the mid-round sleeper with huge upside that many in the fantasy football community expected, but with Cooper Kupp (ankle) out of the season, he began to gravitate back to the fantasy radar -- even in the porous Rams' offense.
However, Robinson suffered a foot injury in Week 11 against the New Orleans Saints after catching four passes for 47 yards and a touchdown. He missed Week 12 against the Kansas City Chiefs as a result.
How long is Robinson out, and is Van Jefferson or another Rams' wide receiver worth picking up? Let's dive into it.

Is Allen Robinson Out For The Season?
Robinson (foot) is expected to miss the remainder of the 2022 NFL season with a stress fracture. The Rams have already likely lost Kupp for the season and it's unknown how long Matthew Stafford will be out, so things are looking bleak for the reigning Super Bowl champions.
Again, Robinson was a fantasy bust up to this point, but he began to gain some traction and is now no longer a fantasy option. The top of the Rams' wideout depth chart now includes Van Jefferson, Ben Skowronek, Lance McCutcheon, Tutu Atwell, and Brandon Powell.
Should I Pickup Van Jefferson For Week 13?
Five games into his 2022 campaign, Jefferson has just nine catches on 20 targets for 97 yards and two touchdowns. He's played in only a few games with Matthew Stafford and has failed to come close to the fantasy radar. In a low-scoring and putrid offense, his upside is capped, as he's built for the big play and scoring touchdowns.
Ultimately, there's not a single Rams' pass-catcher with a "safe" floor or real fantasy intrigue. It's hard to think about it this way, but view the Rams' offense in the same light as the Texans or Panthers offense. That's how bad it's been. They are right there with the Panthers and Texans in yards per game and points per game.
If Matthew Stafford (neck/head) plays again soon, at least one Rams' pass-catcher will have some value, but if not, there's not a startable player on this offense in traditional leagues. Those in deep leagues can consider stashing Jefferson or Skowronek, but rostering a handcuff running back will likely be more fruitful and pump your roster with more upside.
