ESPN Fantasy Projection: Robinson was traded to the 49ers in August after leading Washington in carries during each of his first three NFL campaigns. While working in a committee with Austin Ekeler last season (eight full games, including the playoffs), Robinson handled 12.8 carries and 1.9 targets per game while playing 51% of the snaps. In those eight games, Robinson dominated goal-line work (four TDs and eight carries inside the 5), but wasn't a great fantasy option (11.1 PPG). The 26-year-old has missed two-plus games in all three pro seasons and has yet to finish better than 24th among backs in snaps, touches or yards. He's now positioned as a clear backup to Christian McCaffrey and is likely to see only a few touches each game. Robinson has some insurance appeal, but even if McCaffrey were to miss time, he'd likely share the backfield with Isaac Guerendo and would thus max out as a flex.
