STM Take
A veteran depth receiver kept around for the role.
The case for
- Two Super Bowl rings (LIV and LVII with Kansas City) plus career-long survival on contending rosters. Six straight tier 8 finishes is paradoxically the proof of value: teams keep him for the role.
- Wk 19 2025's 23.1 PPR shows the spike-week ceiling when injuries force him into the rotation. Career receiving yards total 2,500+ across nine seasons.
The worry
- Six straight tier 8 STTM finishes (#79, #134, #69, #79, #100) confirms the career WR4 ceiling. Career receiving yards per season has trended below 350.
- At 32 the trajectory is closing the book. The 49ers WR room (Aiyuk, Deebo, Pearsall, Jennings) has zero target share to spare.
What to watch: Whether the 49ers retain him as veteran depth through 2026 or move on for a cheaper younger UDFA at the league minimum.
Full take and bio
Six straight tier 8 finishes across nine NFL seasons defines the role: career-long depth WR who has won two Super Bowls largely on special-teams contributions and emergency receiving snaps. The 2025 game log has a Wk 19 23.1 PPR explosion (the season's high) with otherwise mostly zero or sub-6 PPR weeks. He is a veteran roster piece, not a meaningful contributor.
Robinson came out of Florida as Kansas City's 4th-round pick (126th overall) in 2016. He spent six seasons in Kansas City as Patrick Mahomes's complementary slot WR, winning Super Bowls LIV and LVII. He bounced through Baltimore (2022) and the Los Angeles Rams (2023-2024) before San Francisco signed him as veteran depth for 2025. His career has produced no top-50 STTM finishes; every season has been tier 8 (#79, #134, #69, #79, #100) which is the textbook career WR4 profile.
