Robinson (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Falcons, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robinson will watch a second straight game from the sidelines after being limited in practice all week. He has mainly worked as a special-teams player this year, so his absence shouldn't shake up the defensive dynamic.

Robinson (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's contest against the Falcons.
EDGE Analysis
Robinson carried a limited tag throughout the practice week, meaning he could be a true game-time decision come Sunday. If healthy, he would mostly serve in a depth role, barring injuries, but would likely chip in on special teams.

Robinson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robinson mainly sticks to special teams, but he could've been in line for some defensive reps Sunday against a pass-heavy offense, especially since P.J. Williams (suspension) won't play. The veteran cornerback will aim to return to the lineup following the team's Week 9 bye.

Robinson (ankle) participated in OTAs on Thursday, Josh Katzenstein of NOLA.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robinson said in December that he was hopeful to return for OTAs after fracturing his ankle in Week 3 of the 2018 season, and it appears to have come to fruition. The 31-year-old was on the field for 110 defensive snaps in those three games, and looks to see a good amount of work this season behind starting cornerbacks Eli Apple and Marshon Lattimore.

Robinson (ankle) said he'll "definitely" be ready for Organized Team Activities in 2019, Josh Katzenstein of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robinson has spent most of the season on injured reserve as he fractured his ankle Week 3 at Atlanta and underwent surgery shortly thereafter in late September.

Robinson (ankle) will undergo surgery to repair torn ligaments in his ankle, Ian Rapoport of NFL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran cornerback will be placed on injured reserve this week, bringing his season to a crashing halt. Robinson registered six tackles on the season, playing a rotational role in the Saints' secondary. He signed a four-year contract with the Saints this offseason, so as long as he can return to full strength, expect him to maintain a spot on defense next season.

Robinson was diagnosed with a fractured ankle Tuesday and will be placed on injured reserve, Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo of NFL Network report.
EDGE Analysis
According to Nick Underhill of The New Orleans Advocate, the Saints were optimistic that Robinson came out of Sunday's win over the Falcons with merely a high-ankle sprain, but follow-up imaging revealed the cornerback was dealing with a more serious concern. The Saints haven't outlined a timetable for Robinson's return to activity, but if he requires surgery to address the matter, it could spell an end to his season. For now, he can be ruled out for a minimum of eight weeks while the Saints weigh whether to use of their two designated-to-return spots on the 31-year-old, who had been third on the depth chart at cornerback behind Marshon Lattimore and Ken Crawley.

The Saints have reached an agreement with Robinson on a four-year contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
A 2010 first-round pick, Robinson will return to his first NFL home after pit stops in San Diego, Indianapolis and Philadelphia. In the latter locale, he aided in the Eagles' march to a win in Super Bowl LII, earning 69 percent of the defensive snaps while playing in every game. His stat line included 47 tackles and four interceptions, but he may find it difficult to uphold that standard with Ken Crawley and P.J. Williams in the way for reps opposite stud 2017 Defensive Rookie of the Year Marshon Lattimore.
