Demarcus Robinson, WR (SF)

Hauls in 39-yard TD pass

Home  >  News

Robinson caught two passes (on three targets) for 50 yards and a touchdown during the 49ers' 27-7 win over the Rams in Week 1.

Robinson snuck past the Rams secondary midway through the second quarter to haul in a 39-yard touchdown pass from Brock Purdy and give the 49ers a 10-7 lead, with the former adding an 11-yard grab early in the third frame that led to a Mike Evans two-yard touchdown catch three plays later. Robinson played 41 of the 49ers' 65 snaps on offense (63.1 percent), which was second-most among San Francisco wideouts behind Evans (49) and ahead of Deebo Samuel (27). Robinson's extended snap count was largely due to rookie second-rounder De'Zhaun Stribling suffering an ankle injury in the first quarter, and the former could operate in an elevated role in Week 2 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Sept. 20 if Stribling is unable to play.
