The Arizona Cardinals could have had rookie defensive lineman Darius Robinson return to practice last week, having spent the first four weeks of the season on injured reserve.
He did not have his 21-day practice window opened but that will happen this week, head coach Jonathan Gannon told reporters Monday.
Robinson suffered a calf injury before the season in practice. It was not as serious as it could have been.
He was placed on injured reserve before the season but designated as a player to return. Once his practice window is opened, which will happen Wednesday, he must be activated and occupy a spot on the active roster within 21 days.
Gannon, when asked about what he needs to see from Robinson before he is activated, wasn’t too specific. “Just him move around and play football,” he said.
We will see by the end of the week if the plan is for him to play in Week against the Green Bay Packers.
