Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Thursday that Robinson (ankle) has an "outside chance" to return from injured reserve for the 49ers' Week 7 game versus the Falcons but is more likely to be activated following the team's Week 8 bye, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports.
Robinson is on the mend from a right high-ankle sprain, which he sustained in the 49ers' Week 2 win over the Dolphins. The 49ers have a dire need for reinforcements at receiver with Deebo Samuel (hamstring) out through the bye and three other wideouts currently on IR, but unless he has his 21-day window opened next week and looks better than expected in practice, Robinson doesn't look like he'll be able to help the team until its Week 9 game versus the Raiders.
The 49ers placed Robinson (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday.

Robinson is the player most likely to benefit from the absence of De'Zhaun Stribling, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Deebo Samuel could see additional snaps as well, but Robinson has shown a good connection with quarterback Brock Purdy over the last couple years when both have been in the lineup. Stribling suffered an ankle injury in Week 1 that will keep the rookie out for at least a month, and with him off the field, Robinson caught two of three targets for 50 yards and a touchdown.
