WAN'DALE ROBINSON NEWS

Not practicing Robinson (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Head coach Brian Daboll wasn't optimistic Tuesday when discussing Robinson and Kadarius Toney (hamstring), who also missed Wednesday's practice. The Giants likely will start Richie James and David Sills this Sunday against the Bears, with Kenny Golladay and Darius Slayton the other healthy options after Sterling Shepard (knee) suffered an ACL tear this past Monday.

May not be ready Week 4 Giants head coach Brian Daboll didn't express much optimism Tuesday that Robinson (knee) will be available for the team's Week 4 matchup with the Bears, Pat Leonard of the New York...

Impact Daboll noted that both Robinson and Kadarius Toney (hamstring) are showing improvement after both missed Monday's loss to the Cowboys, but the quick turnaround for the Week 4 matchup may make it difficult for either wideout to gain clearance for game action. Robinson may face a tougher battle to suit up Sunday, as he didn't practice in any capacity this past week before being ruled out against Dallas, while Toney was given a doubtful designation ahead of the contest. The potential absences of Robinson and Toney again in Week 4 would loom even larger than usual for the Giants, as top wideout Sterling Shepard (knee) suffered a season-ending ACL tear in the fourth quarter of the loss to the Cowboys to further deplete the receiving corps.

Not playing Monday Robinson (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's matchup against the Cowboys, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact This shouldn't come as much of a surprise given Robinson was unable to practice all week. The Giants should be relatively healthy at wide receiver otherwise, as only Kadarius Toney (hamstring/doubtful) is listed on the team's final injury report ahead of the aforementioned primetime game.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Still hasn't practiced since injury Robinson (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Friday's practice estimate, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact The Giants held a walkthrough, but Robinson would not have been able to participate had New York held an actual session. The rookie wide receiver hasn't practiced in any capacity since injuring his knee Week 1, so he appears to be heading towards a Week 3 absence against the Cowboys, though Robinson will have the benefit of an extra day to heal because the game won't be played until Monday.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

No Thursday practice Robinson (knee) did not practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact The Giants play Monday so Robinson has time to return to practice yet this week, but the question of whether he'll be able to isn't clear. Even if Robinson practices in some capacity this week, it's also not clear whether he's a realistic bet to return to the field Monday. Particularly with Richie James playing relatively well in the slot, the Giants might not be inclined to rush Robinson back from the knee injury, which he suffered Week 1.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Working on side Wednesday Robinson (knee) was spotted working on the side with team trainers during Wednesday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Impact He was joined on the side field by fellow wide receivers Kadarius Toney (hamstring) and Sterling Shepard (rest). Robinson injured his right knee in the season opener and didn't practice last week before the Giants ruled him out for Week 2. It's unclear if the rookie second-round pick will mix into drills this week, but the first practice report of Week 3 -- which the team isn't required to post until Thursday -- will reveal whether or not he did so.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play in Week 2 Robinson (knee) will miss Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Impact Robinson failed to practice in any capacity throughout the week, so it isn't surprising to see the rookie wide receiver listed as out on New York's final injury report. With Kadarius Toney (hamstring) questionable, the Giants could be down two young playmakers in a receiving corps that will still feature Kenny Golladay, Sterling Shepard and Richie James. Robinson's next chance to suit up will come in Week 3 against Dallas on Monday Night Football.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Remains absent from practice Robinson (knee) didn't participate in practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact After consecutive absences at practices to begin Week 2 prep, the rookie wideout will likely need to get back on the field Friday as at least a limited participant to have a realistic shot at playing Sunday against the Panthers. If Robinson can't play Week 2, Richie James and Kadarius Toney could take on more pronounced roles at receiver alongside starters Kenny Golladay and Sterling Shepard.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sits out practice Robinson (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Head coach Brian Daboll said Robinson is day-to-day after an early exit from Sunday's win over the Titans, though Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com notes that the wide receiver has a brace over his knee and appears likely to miss some time. If so, candidates to see extra snaps include Richie James, Kadarius Toney and David Sills.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Not practicing Wednesday Coach Brian Daboll said that Robinson (knee) won't practice Wednesday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Impact Robinson was forced out of the Giants' Week 1 win over the Titans due to a right knee injury, and he's currently considered day-to-day but has made progress since Sunday. The rookie second-round pick will have two more opportunities to upgrade to at least limited activity before the Giants take on the Panthers in Week 2.

It's time for Giants to unleash receiver Kadarius Toney

Saquon Barkley was a one-man show on Sunday, but he needs help. Ralph Vacchiano has a suggestion for the Giants: Play Kadarius Toney.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2022

Can't find room against Cincy Robinson caught all three of his targets for minus-3 yards in Sunday's 25-22 preseason win over the Bengals.

Impact New York made a conscious effort to get the ball into the rookie second-round pick's hands with short passes around the line of scrimmage, but the Cincinnati defense closed quickly, and Robinson failed to make people miss. Robinson brings a similar skill set to 2021 first-round pick Kadarius Toney, who sat this one out with a leg injury, but Toney's extra year of experience presumably puts him ahead of Robinson in the pecking order when both are healthy.

NFL odds: Mid-Round receivers that can contend for OROY

Some players drafted after the first round are getting betting action to win Offensive Rookie of the Year.

AUGUST 19, 2022

No targets in pro debut Robinson was listed as a starter but wasn't targeted in Thursday's 23-21 preseason win at New England.

Impact Fellow starting wide receiver Kenny Golladay and No. 1 quarterback Daniel Jones played the first two possessions of the game, so Robinson likely logged at least as much action as the established pair. A second-round pick in the 2022 Draft, Robinson impressed throughout the offseason program and training camp and was listed on the first-team offense on the Giants' first unofficial depth chart, putting himself in good standing in a receiving corps that's injury prone. At the moment, second-year pro Kadarius Toney (leg) isn't practicing, and Sterling Shepard (Achilles) remains on the PUP list, leaving Golladay, Robinson and Darius Slayton as the team's top healthy options.

AUGUST 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

On depth chart as first-teamer Robinson is listed as a first-team wide receiver on the Giants' first unofficial depth chart.

Impact New York has yet to play its first preseason game and Sterling Shepard is listed at the end of the depth chart since he is on the PUP list while recovering from a torn Achilles, so Robinson's placement is far from set in stone. Still, it's an indication that the Giants think highly of the 21-year-old rookie receiver, who they selected in the second round of the draft in April. Should Robinson carve out significant playing time this season, he could prove to be a steal for managers selecting him at the back end of fantasy drafts.

AUGUST 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Avoids injury scare Robinson left Thursday's practice early after getting hit in the back and landing hard, but he was able to practice Friday, Dan Benton of Giants Wire reports.

Impact Robinson appears to have avoided an injury Thursday and should continue to take valuable reps in training camp. The rookie second-round pick out of Kentucky will be jostling for playing time in a Giants receiving corps that also includes Kenny Golladay, Kadarius Toney, Sterling Shepard (Achilles) and Darius Slayton.

Breaking Down Giants Second-round Pick WanDale Robinson The Giants’ selection of Kentucky receiver Wan’Dale Robinson isn’t so surprising considering what he brings to the table.

APRIL 30, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Big Apple-bound The Giants selected Robinson in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 43rd overall.

Impact This is an interesting pick for the Giants as Robinson is a versatile piece who was not quite expected to go this high. Robinson began his career at Nebraska, where he split time between running back and receiver. He transferred to Kentucky for 2021 and was the engine of the Wildcats' passing game, catching 104 of 144 targets for 1,334 yards and seven touchdowns. Robinson is on the smaller end at 5-foot-8 and 178 pounds, but he's a tough runner with 4.44 speed. Per PFF, Robinson forced 22 missed tackles at Kentucky. Kadarius Toney, who is reportedly being shopped by the Giants, has a similar skill set where his best trait is running after the catch, so Robinson could be a viable replacement if the latter is moved before the season.
