Giants' Aaron Robinson: Set to miss at least four games
Rotowire
The Giants moved Robinson (knee) from the active/PUP list to the reserve/PUP list Tuesday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Robinson fully tore his MCL and partially tore his ACL in October of 2022 and spent training camp on the active/PUP list. He isn't fully recovered ahead of the 2023 regular season and will be forced to miss at least the first four games of the year after moving to the reserve/PUP list.

Giants' Aaron Robinson: Lands on IR
Rotowire
The Giants placed Robinson (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday, Michael Eisen of the team's official site reports.
After missing back-to-back games due to an appendectomy, Robinson returned to his starting role for Week 4, but he played just 12 total snaps before suffering a knee injury that knocked him out of the contest. The 2021 third-round pick will be forced to miss at least four games before he's eligible to return to the active roster. In Robinson's absence, Fabian Moreau would be the most likely candidate to start at cornerback opposite of Adoree' Jackson.

Giants' Aaron Robinson: Limited Wednesday
Rotowire
Robinson (appendix) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Robinson underwent an appendectomy before Week 2 and has missed back-to-back games. His return to practice is certainly encouraging, but he likely still has quite a few hurdles to clear before he's ready for game action. Robinson's practice statues for Thursday and Friday should provide further clarity on his availability for Week 4.

Giants' Aaron Robinson: Unlikely to play Monday
Rotowire
Robinson (appendix) didn't practice Thursday and isn't expected to play Monday versus Dallas, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Robinson underwent an appendectomy last Wednesday and missed the Giants' Week 2 win over Carolina. He sat out the team's first practice this week, putting his status for Week 3 in serious doubt. Should Robinson be unable to return for Monday's contest, either Cor'Dale Flott or Fabian Moreau could step in to replace him.

Giants' Aaron Robinson: Limited at practice
Rotowire
Coach Brian Daboll said Robinson (undisclosed) will likely be wearing a red jersey at practice, signifying he's limited Tuesday, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
It's unclear at this time what specifically is holding Robinson back from practicing at full strength. The Giants need someone in their cornerbacks room to step up in 2022 after losing lockdown corner James Bradberry to the division-rival Eagles this offseason. Robinson's absence apparently creates more opportunities for Michael Jacquet.

Giants' Aaron Robinson: Gets core muscle surgery
Rotowire
Robinson underwent core muscle surgery this week and is expected to be out three-to-eight weeks, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Robinson was already on the PUP list, and this makes it clear why. The rookie cornerback will likely have to wait awhile before his NFL debut. When the 22-year-old does return, he will likely play a reserve role, as he is currently buried on the depth chart.

Giants' Aaron Robinson: Placed on PUP list
Rotowire
Robinson (core) was placed on the Active/PUP list Friday, Michael Eisen of Giants.com reports.
The rookie will start his first training camp on the PUP list, but it doesn't appear that his injury is too serious. The third-round pick can be activated at any time during training camp, and if he's healthy at the start of the regular season, he would likely compete for the Giants' nickel corner spot.
