Demarcus Robinson Unreliable Despite Ricky Pearsall's Injury

Saturday, October 25, 6:10 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Demarcus Robinson has been unable to capitalize on the myriad injuries plaguing the team's offense. After serving a three-game suspension, Robinson had a one-game tuneup in Week 4 before being thrust into the starting lineup with Ricky Pearsall (knee) and Jauan Jennings (ankle, ribs, shoulder) both succumbing to injuries. Robinson managed just three catches for 39 yards on seven targets with both receivers out in Week 5. After Jennings returned to action in Week 6, Robinson's snaps and targets plummeted. Pearsall has been declared out for Week 8, but with Jennings on the mend and George Kittle in his second week back from injured reserve, Robinson has no place on San Francisco's offense. Robinson projects as a WR6/7 this week and can be safely left on benches, if not the waiver wire.

Jordan Whittington to See Larger Role

Sunday, October 19, 9:00 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington will move up the depth chart for Sunday's Week 7 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Rams will be without top wideout Puka Nacua (ankle) for this game. That means, Whittington could move into the No. 2 role behind Davante Adams for this game. The 25-year-old has been quiet, but saw a season-high four targets and played 92 percent of the offensive snaps during last week's game. The expectation is that Whittington will be more involved with Nacua unable to play. There should be flex value here against a shaky Jaguars secondary this weekend.
