Is Demarcus Robinson playing on "Thursday Night Football" or is he out? Is Demarcus Robinson injured or healthy for Week 15 TNF? Mike Fanelli analyzes the latest injury news.
The Los Angeles Rams’ wide receiver core has had multiple injuries this season. Cooper Kupp missed four games with an ankle injury.
More importantly, Puka Nacua missed five games with a PCL sprain. Thankfully, the Rams had other wide receivers step up for the two superstars.
One of those wide receivers is Demarcus Robinson. The veteran has played well as a spot starter and No. 3 wide receiver. Unfortunately, he is dealing with an injury, so his status for tonight’s game is in question.

Will Demarcus Robinson Play Tonight?
Robinson is questionable to play against the San Francisco 49ers tonight with a shoulder injury. The veteran wide receiver suffered the injury last week against the Buffalo Bills, landing hard on his shoulder trying to make a catch. He didn’t practice on Monday or Tuesday. However, Robinson was a limited participant on Wednesday, giving him a chance to suit up against the division rivals.
Rams are listing WR Demarcus Robinson (shoulder), WR Jordan Whittington (shoulder), and TE Davis Allen (shoulder) as questionable for Thursday night’s game versus the 49ers.

Should I Start Demarcus Robinson In Week 15?
The veteran is the WR45 for the year, averaging 7.6 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. Robinson has been a scoring machine since the Rams got Nacua and Kupp back in the lineup. He has six receiving touchdowns over the past seven weeks, scoring two in a game twice.
More importantly, Robinson has a receiving touchdown in two of the past three games, scoring against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 12 and New Orleans Saints in Week 13. Hopefully, he can find the end zone tonight against the 49ers.
Stafford goes to Robinson for the TD!

San Francisco has held wide receivers to 24.7 fantasy points per game, the ninth-fewest in the NFL this season. However, they have surrendered four receiving touchdowns to wide receivers over the past three weeks, including two to Rome Odunze in Week 14. While the veteran is far from a must-star wide receiver, Robinson is a solid flex option in deeper leagues, assuming he plays.
