The 49ers activated Robinson (ankle) from injured reserve Saturday, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports.
After missing the 49ers' first five games while recovering from a high-ankle sprain, Robinson returned to practice Wednesday. The 49ers apparently came away encouraged by how Robinson checked out during those three sessions, so he looks as though he could get the chance to make his 2022 debut Sunday in Atlanta. The 24-year-old is projected to serve as a depth option at linebacker.

49ers' Curtis Robinson: Set to miss time with injury
Rotowire
Robinson (groin) is expected to miss the 49ers' practices this week while dealing with a groin injury, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
It's unclear when the 24-year-old sustained this injury, and he's likely a question mark for San Francisco's preseason matchup against the Vikings on Aug. 20. Robinson played exclusively on special teams (37 snaps) over the final three regular-season games for the 49ers in 2021 before re-signing with the team in January. With the second-year middle linebacker sidelined, backups Marcelino McCrary-Ball and Jeremiah Gemmel should see increased snaps during practice this week.

Robinson (thumb, wrist) was injured in Thursday's 17-14 loss to the Browns, Jeff Legwold of ESPN reports.
Robinson was on the Broncos practice squad prior to Thursday's game and saw increased action due to Micah Kiser (groin) getting injured during the game. The Broncos linebacker group has been decimated by injuries this season with seven different players hitting the IR since the season started. Robinson will hope to return to practice Thursday, even if in a limited fashion.
