Lions' Amik Robertson: Undergoes successful surgery
Rotowire
Robertson had surgery on the broken humerus he sustained during Saturday's 45-31 divisional-round loss to the Commanders, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Pelissero adds that the procedure on Robertson's broken arm went well and that he is expected to be available for offseason workouts. The 26-year-old signed a two-year, $9.25 million with the Lions last March, and he delivered with career highs in tackles (50) and passes defended (8) over 17 regular-season games. Assuming he's healthy, Robertson should reprise his role as Detroit's primary slot cornerback next season.

Lions' Amik Robertson: Finds new home
Rotowire
Robertson is set to sign a two-year, $9.25 million contract with the Lions, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Robertson will now join Carlton Davis as part of Detroit's attempt to rebuild its secondary, which was a weak point last season.

Raiders' Amik Robertson: Good to go Sunday
Rotowire
Robertson (concussion) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against Miami, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
The fourth-year cornerback out of Louisiana Tech missed Wednesday's practice with a concussion, but he was able to log a full session Friday, and it seems as if he's cleared concussion protocol ahead of Sunday's contest. Robertson has appeared in seven games for Las Vegas this year, recording 24 total tackles, three pass deflections and two interceptions.

Raiders' Amik Robertson: Scoops and scores in Week 5 win
Rotowire
Robertson recorded three tackles (two solo) and returned a recovered fumble for a touchdown during Sunday's 32-23 win over the Broncos.
Melvin Gordon tried to fight for extra yards on a first-and-10 play in the second quarter when Duron Harmon knocked the ball loose. Robertson jumped on the loose ball and proceeded to weave his way between blockers for a 68-yard score.

Raiders' Amik Robertson: Will face Bengals
Rotowire
Robertson (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, according to Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com.
Robertson didn't play against the Chiefs last week and didn't practice Wednesday, so his status for the weekend was looking grim, but he recorded a limited practice Thursday and didn't have restrictions Friday, so he's been cleared as a result. His presence boosts the depth of the cornerback corps, as Brandon Facyson (finger/hamstring) is questionable while Keisean Nixon (ankle/foot) is out.

Raiders' Amik Robertson: Questionable with illness
Rotowire
Robertson is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills due to an illness, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Robertson hasn't played a snap this season, so his absence ordinarily wouldn't be a particularly significant one for the Raiders. Las Vegas is thin at cornerback after Damon Arnette (thumb) landed on injured reserve Friday, however, so he could play a role if he gets past his illness.
