Ready to go for SNF
Robertson (hamstring) is active for Sunday night's contest against the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Robertson is ready to go for Sunday Night Football after having been limited at practice late in the week with a hamstring issue. With Terrion Arnold (concussion) unavailable, Robertson may be tasked with handling the most significant assignment at cornerback for the Lions against DeVonta Smith and A.J. Brown on the other side.

Dealing with hamstring injury
Robertson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Robertson popped up on Thursday's practice report as a limited participant due to a hamstring injury. He's been given the questionable tag for Sunday's road game, and if he joins Terrion Arnold (concussion) on the inactive list, then Rock Ya-Sin, Avonte Maddox and Nick Whiteside would be the top candidates to start at outside corner. Robertson has started in each of the Lions' last five games, and over that span he has accumulated 16 tackles (14 solo), two pass defenses (one interception) and one forced fumble.

Nabs INT in Week 5 victory
Roberts tallied six tackles (all solo) and an interception in a 37-24 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Robertson was one of three Lions to total at least six stops in the win. His pickoff came early in the second quarter on a Jake Browning pass intended for Ja'Marr Chase. That pickoff was Robertson's first since he recorded two interceptions during the 2023 campaign with Las Vegas.

Humerus fracture healed
Robertson (arm) has been a full participant at OTAs, indicating that his left humerus fracture is fully healed, Jimmy Liao of USA Today Lions Wire reports.
ANALYSIS
Robertson had surgery in January to repair the broken humerus he sustained in Detroit's season-ending loss to Washington in the NFC divisional round. He set career highs with eight passes defensed and 50 tackles during the 2024 regular season and should remain a contributor in the secondary for the Lions in 2025.

Undergoes sucessful surgey
Robertson had surgery on the broken humerus he sustained during Saturday's 45-31 divisional-round loss to the Commanders, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Pelissero adds that the procedure on Robertson's broken arm went well and that he is expected to be available for offseason workouts. The 26-year-old signed a two-year, $9.25 million with the Lions last March, and he delivered with career highs in tackles (50) and passes defended (8) over 17 regular-season games. Assuming he's healthy, Robertson should reprise his role as Detroit's primary slot cornerback next season.

Requires surgery on arm
Roberston broke his arm in Saturday's 45-31 divisional-round loss to the Commanders,Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Robertson suffered the injury early in the first quarter and was quickly ruled out. He'll undergo surgery Monday, though the timeline for his return is unclear.
Jan 18, 2025
Ruled out Saturday
Robertson (elbow) has been ruled out of Saturday's divisional-round game against the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
Robertson suffered the injury early in the first quarter and departed to the sideline with trainers. He was ruled out not long after, though the severity of the injury is unclear. Kindle Vildor has taken over at outside corner in a beat-up Lions' secondary.
Jan 18, 2025
Dealing with elbow injury
Robertson is questionable to return to Saturday's divisional-round game against the Commanders due to an elbow injury.
ANALYSIS
Robertson suffered the injury early in the first quarter and was walked off the field by trainers. Kindle Vildor has taken over as an outside corner in Robertson's absence. The Lions are already without several key members of their secondary, so Robertson's absence would be another significant blow.
Jan 2, 2025
Upgraded to full Thursday
Robertson (calf) returned to a full practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Robertson logged 100 percent of the defensive snaps last Monday night against the 49ers and has become an every-down cornerback for the Lions in the two games since Carlton Davis suffered a broken jaw. Over the last two weeks, Robertson has totaled 10 tackles (seven solo), three pass breakups and one forced fumble.
Jan 1, 2025
Logs limited session Wednesday
Robertson (calf) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimation.
ANALYSIS
Robertson played 100 percent of the Lions' defensive snaps in Monday night's win over the 49ers, recording two total tackles, one pass defended and one forced fumble. However, it now appears he sustained a calf injury in the process. If the 26-year-old's injury holds him out of the Week 18 matchup against the Vikings, Kindle Vildor will likely start opposite rookie Terrion Arnold as part of Detroit's top outside cornerback duo.
Dec 23, 2024
Notches eight tackles vs. Bears
Robertson recorded eight total tackles (five solo) and two passes defended in Sunday's 34-17 win over the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Robertson finished second on the Lions' defense in total tackles during Sunday's blowout win, trailing Brian Branch's 12-stop performance. The first-year Lion tied his season high in tackles (eight) in Week 16, having now accumulated 43 total tackles, six passes defended and two forced fumbles over 15 appearances. Robertson is expected to continue starting opposite Terrion Arnold as part of Detroit's top outside cornerback duo for the remainder of the regular season.
Oct 1, 2024
Eight solo tackles in win
Robertson recorded eight solo tackles and two passes defensed in Monday's 42-29 win over Seattle.
ANALYSIS
Robertson played a season-high 55 percent of Detroit's defensive snaps, finishing second on the team in tackles behind Kerby Joseph. The 26-year-old is operating as the team's starting slot cornerback, compiling 12 total tackles (11 solo) and four passes defensed over the first four games of 2024.
Jul 24, 2024
Comes off NFI list
The Lions removed Robertson (undisclosed) from the active/non-football injury list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Robertson's stint on the active/non-football injury list was short-lived, as he spent just a handful of hours on it. The first-year Lion is now able to participate in training camp once again.
Jul 24, 2024
Moves to NFI list
The Lions placed Robertson (undisclosed) on the active/non-football injury list Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
As of now, the nature and severity of Robertson's injury remain unknown, but the Louisiana Tech product is still eligible to practice or play at any point throughout the preseason. The fifth-year veteran posted 50 total tackles and six passes defended in 2023, and once he returns to full health, he's expected to contribute as one of the Lions' top cornerbacks in his first year with the team.
Mar 12, 2024
Finds new home
Robertson is set to sign a two-year, $9.25 million contract with the Lions on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Robertson will now join Carlton Davis as part of Detroit's attempt to rebuild their secondary, which was certainly one of their weak points last season. The 2020 fourth-round selection has mostly operated out of the slot in his four years with the Raiders. The Lousiana Tech product notched 50 combined tackles last season, while also recording six passes defended, including two interceptions.
Nov 17, 2023
Good to go Sunday
Robertson (concussion) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against Miami, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The fourth-year cornerback out of Louisiana Tech missed Wednesday's practice with a concussion, but he was able to log a full session Friday, and it seems as if he's cleared concussion protocol ahead of Sunday's contest. Robertson has appeared in seven games for Las Vegas this year, recording 24 total tackles, three pass deflections and two interceptions.
Nov 15, 2023
Now in concussion protocol
Robertson is in concussion protocol Wednesday, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Robertson sustained the concussion during Sunday's win versus the Jets. Most players who have entered concussion protocol so far this season have sat out at least one game, so it would be surprising to see him suit up in Week 11.
Nov 12, 2023
Ruled out with concussion
Robertson won't return to Sunday's game against the Jets due to a concussion.
ANALYSIS
Robertson went down after taking a blow to the head in the first half of Sunday's matchup and will be unavailable down the stretch. He'll have to clear the league's concussion protocol if he hopes to suit up for next Sunday's game against Miami.
Nov 7, 2023
Snags interception in win
Robertson recorded three solo tackles while intercepting a pass, deflecting two others and forcing a fumble in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Robertson was able to pick off New York's quarterback Tommy DeVito in the second quarter, corralling his second interception of the season. The cornerback has now registered 21 tackles, including a sack, while intercepting a pass, deflecting three others and forcing a fumble over the first nine contests of the year.
Oct 4, 2022
Scoops and scores in Week 5 win
Robertson recorded three tackles (two solo) and returned a recovered fumble for a touchdown during Sunday's 32-23 win over the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Melvin Gordon tried fight for extra yards on a first-and-10 play in the second quarter when Duron Harmon knocked the ball loose. Robertson jumped on the loose ball and proceeded to weave his way between blockers for a 68-yard score. The third-year defensive back has had an inconsistent role this season due to numerous injuries in Las Vegas' secondary, but his playmaking ability may earn him extra snaps moving forward.
Nov 19, 2021
Will face Bengals
Robertson (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, according to Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com.
ANALYSIS
Robertson didn't play against the Chiefs last week and didn't practice Wednesday, so his status for the weekend was looking grim, but he recorded a limited practice Thursday and didn't have restrictions Friday, so he's been cleared as a result. His presence boosts the depth of the cornerback corps, as Brandon Facyson (finger/hamstring) is questionable while Keisean Nixon (ankle/foot) is out.
Nov 14, 2021
Inactive against Kansas City
Robertson (hip) is inactive for Sunday's game against Kansas City.
ANALYSIS
Robertson was doubtful heading into Sunday's matchup and will be unable to suit up due to a hip injury. The 23-year-old's absence shouldn't significantly impact the Raiders' defensive plans.
Nov 13, 2021
Unlikely to play Sunday
Robertson (hip) is doubtful for Sunday's game against Kansas City, Rachel Gossen of the Raiders' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Robertson was a full participant at Wednesday's practice but was unable to take the field Thursday or Friday. His likely absence shouldn't impact the Raiders' defensive plans.
Oct 4, 2020
Playing Week 4
Robertson (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Bills.
ANALYSIS
The rookie fourth-round pick was considered questionable due to an illness, but it won't prevent him from being available for Sunday's contest. Robertson has yet to play a snap this season, so he's unlikely to be a factor in the Raiders' defensive plans.
Oct 3, 2020
Questionable with illness
Robertson is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills due to an illness, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robertson hasn't played a snap this season, so his absence ordinarily wouldn't be a particularly significant one for the Raiders. Las Vegas is thin at cornerback after Damon Arnette (thumb) landed on injured reserve Friday, however, so he could play a role if he gets past his illness.
