The Jets placed Robinson (undisclosed) on the practice-squad injured list Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. A fifth-round pick by the Jaguars last year, Robinson spent this past summer with the Eagles but failed to make the 53-man roster out of camp. He rushed 27 times for 57 scoreless yards during the preseason. Robinson will be unavailable for a promotion for at least the next four games of the regular season.
The Jets signed Robinson to the practice squad Tuesday, Susanna Weir of the team's official site reports. Robinson was unable to make the Eagles' 53-man roster at the end of training camp but will get another opportunity with the Jets as a member of the practice squad. The 2024 fifth-rounder appeared in six regular-season games for the Jaguars in his rookie season but was waived by Jacksonville in early June. Robinson is a candidate to be elevated to the active roster for the Jets' Week 2 AFC East clash against the Bills on Sunday if Kene Nwangwu (hamstring) is unable to play.
Robinson was waived by the Eagles on Tuesday. Robinson played in all three preseason games with the team, turning 27 carries into 56 rushing yards, while he also added one catch for six yards and four kickoff returns for 98 yards. The running back was claimed off waivers by the Eagles after the Jaguars cut him loose in early, and he may now be claimed once again before he'd hit open market.
