Rookie DL Darius Robinson’s NFL debut coming soon after returning to practice

The final stretch before Darius Robinson’s NFL debut has begun as he was returned to practice.

Defensive lineman Darius Robinson, the Arizona Cardinal’s second first-round selection in the 2024 NFL draft, is on the final stretch to his NFL debut.

The Cardinals, as expected, opened his practice window, giving him 21 days to be activated from injured reserve to the active roster. It could come as early as this week.

Robinson, the 27th pick in the draft, played well in his limited preseason action, but suffered a calf injury in practice before the season. He was placed on injured reserve and designated to return.

During the open part of Wednesday’s practice, Robinson just watched. The first injury report of Week 6 will come out Wednesday afternoon and his status will be noted.
