Could be , but Gannon didn’t say that.
Except he did, last week. Someone posted the video here. But ok.

"Looks like he'll be activated next week and then be inactive until ready to play."

apologies, I missed the quote where Gannon said Darius would be inactive this week and I can't find it with a google search. Can someone link me?
It was from Howard Balzer after a Gannon presser last week.

"Looks like he'll be activated next week and then be inactive until ready to play."

Robinson hasn't practiced since the first week of the window when he felt discomfort. Then his mom died. There is no way he's ready to play this week.

Least week, yeah. I was just quoting what he said yesterday.

interesting... so Howard Balzer things D Rob wont play but other local media is speaking as if D Rob will be in the DL rotation this week. Plus, D Rob is listed 2nd string on the depth chart this week.

This is what Gannon has actually said:

“We’ll take it day by day with him and just keep working with him every day and hopefully improving every day and see where it goes,”

They can list the same person more than once backing up multiple positions, like they do OLine and still make him 3rd option in the depth chart.
You are reading way too into it.

Let me ask you this, so you want our 1st pick playing after just only 3 practices after coming back from an major calf injury and minor reinjury, with hos mother's dead smack in the middle of all of this?

Guess we'll see how much he practices today. I'd prefer to see him make his debut after the bye against the Seahawks.

Also, Kyler was #1 on the depth chart in the preseason last year and people thought that meant he was coming back to start the season.

I hope Robinson coming back doesn't prevent MO from going out to get someone.

Has DR practiced this week?
I'm right there with you man, getting him back & making a trade for an impact DL or edge rusher could really help our defense. It's been said that Robinson can play edge or interior so a trade could also be for either or.
