Story summary

In the Week 2 matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and the Miami Dolphins, veteran receiver DeMarcus Robinson was carted off with an ankle injury during the second quarter. He had caught a pass from quarterback Brock Purdy near the red zone but fell to the turf at the 4-yard line while attempting to move towards the end zone. After being inspected by the team’s medical staff, Robinson left the game and did not return.

Robinson was leading all receivers for San Francisco with 34 yards on three catches before his injury. The 49ers were already facing a shortage of wide receivers after Ricky Pearsall went down during training camp due to season-ending surgery for a PCL tear, and rookie De’Zhaun Stribling is expected to miss about 10 weeks following recent ankle surgery.

With Robinson now added to the injury list, San Francisco was forced to give Jacob Cowing his first playing time of the season.
