Curtis Robinson - Pro Football Rumors

NFL Reserve/Futures Contracts: 2/13/24

February 13th, 2024 at 7:31pm CST by Ben Levine

Today’s reserve/futures deals:

Jacksonville Jaguars

OL Chandler Brewer, DB Tevaughn Campbell, DL D.J. Coleman, OLB De’Shaan Dixon, DB Erick Hallett II, LB Dequan Jackson, DB Amani Oruwariye, DL Esezi Otomewo, DB Ayo Oyelola, TE Josh Pederson, OL Keaton Sutherland, OL Darryl Williams, WR Seth Williams

Kansas City Chiefs

DT Isaiah Buggs

San Francisco 49ers

OL Sebastian Gutierrez, DB Kemon Hall, S Erik Harris, S Tayler Hawkins, WR Tay Martin, DL Sam Okuayinonu, LB Curtis Robinson, TE Jake Tonges, DL Spencer Waege

Oruwariye spent much of the 2023 season on the Jaguars practice squad, with the defensive back getting into just one game. The former fifth-round pick has more experience than your standard reserve/futures contract, as Oruwariye started 29 games for the Lions between 2020 and 2021. That latter season was one of his strongest, as he finished with 57 tackles, 11 passes defended, and six interceptions.

Elevated: WR Devon Allen, CB Mekhi Garner
Placed on IR: WR Quez Watkins

San Francisco 49ers

Elevated: CB Shemar Jean-Charles, LB Curtis Robinson

Seattle Seahawks

Elevated: WR Cody Thompson
Placed on IR: CB Coby Bryant

Dean took the starting role the Eagles had in store for him in Week 1, but a foot injury interrupted his second NFL campaign. The 22-year-old was poised to return ahead of Sunday’s game by returning to practice earlier this week, though, and a first-team role is expected to await him upon suiting up. Dean taking on a heavy workload will relegate Nicholas Morrow (who was promoted from the practice squad) to backup duty despite the latter’s strong performances so far.

Seattle has seen fellow corners Devon Witherspoon and Riq Woolen enjoy considerable success, but the team’s secondary will be shorthanded without Bryant. The latter will miss at least the next four weeks as a result of the IR move as he recovers from a toe injury. The 2022 fourth-rounder, who has seen his defensive snap share jump from 65% to 77% this year, has not played since Week 2.

49ers Place Nick Bosa On Reserve/Did Not Report List, Pare Roster To 53

August 29th, 2023 at 9:36pm CST by Sam Robinson

The 49ers joined the Chiefs in placing their best defensive player on the reserve/did not report list due to a holdout and joined the other 30 teams in finalizing their 53-man roster. Some changes are expected, with veterans pledged to stay. But here is how the 49ers reached 53:

Released:

DL Austin Bryant
WR Chris Conley
TE Troy Fumagalli
RB Brian Hill
DL Kerry Hyder
DL T.Y. McGill
RB Jeremy McNichols
WR Anthony Miller
WR Willie Snead

Waived:

DL Alex Barrett
FB Jack Colletto
DL Marlon Davidson
OL Joey Fisher
OL Alfredo Gutierrez
S Myles Hartsfield
OL Keith Ismael
CB D’Shawn Jamison
S Qwuantrezz Knight
OL Corey Luciano
OL Ilm Manning
WR Tay Martin
LB Marcelino McCrary-Ball
OL Jason Poe
LB Curtis Robinson
CB Tre Swilling
OL Leroy Watson
WR Isaiah Winstead

Placed on reserve/did not report list:

DE Nick Bosa

Placed on IR:

K Zane Gonzalez
S Tayler Hawkins
TE Cameron Latu (story)
CB A.J. Parker

Placed on reserve/PUP list:

CB Darrell Luter

The 49ers are planning to re-sign Hyder and Bryant once they make other roster moves, Matt Barrows of The Athletic notes (subscription required). Both are vested veterans who are not subject to waivers. With Samson Ebukam and Charles Omenihu gone, Hyder figures to be a key piece as a rotational defensive end. He is with the 49ers for the third time in four seasons. After an 8.5-sack slate in 2020, Hyder signed with the Seahawks. But Seattle released him in 2021, leading the veteran back to the Bay Area.

San Francisco’s 53-man roster will include Bosa soon, and this holdout does not appear as contentious as the Chris Jones-Chiefs standoff. John Lynch has indicated the 49ers will waive Bosa’s fines for missing training camp — an option the 49ers have due to Bosa being tied to a rookie contract. While the 49ers changed defensive coordinators, bringing in Steve Wilks to replace DeMeco Ryans, D-line coach Kris Kocurek remains in place. Bosa should be able to hit the ground running once he returns, though the 49ers are running short on time here.

Gonzalez suffered a calf injury Kyle Shanahan said would keep him out a few weeks. With the veteran landing on IR, an injury settlement is likely. The 49ers used a third-round pick on Michigan kicker Jake Moody, but Barrows notes the strained quadriceps injury he suffered may keep him out of Week 1. On that note, the 49ers worked out Tristan Vizcaino and Taylor Russolino, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area notes. Robbie Gould, the 49ers’ kicker for the past six seasons, remains unsigned.

49ers Activate DT Javon Kinlaw From IR

December 23rd, 2022 at 3:37pm CST by Ben Levine

DECEMBER 23: Kinlaw is back on San Francisco’s active roster. The team has one IR activation remaining. It is expected to be used on running back Elijah Mitchell, who is out until January with his second MCL sprain of the season. San Francisco waived linebacker Curtis Robinson, one of its previous IR-return activations, to make room on its roster.

DECEMBER 22: The 49ers will soon be getting some reinforcement. Coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters (including Cam Inman of the San Jose Mercury via Twitter) that he expects defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw to be activated for Saturday’s game the Commanders. GM John Lynch also expressed optimism that Kinlaw will be able to return from his lingering knee issues.

“He’s practiced really well, and everything’s holding up really well,” Lynch told KNBR’s Markus Boucher and Marcus Thompson today (h/t to 49ersWebzone.com). “Now, we’ve got to all kind of put our heads together, the medical folks, our health and performance staff, the doctors, and then our coaching staff and front office, and just talk about the best plan for him.

“It’s something that we’re in constant conversation [about], but it’s also fluid. You have to constantly monitor and think, What’s the best thing for Javon? What’s the best thing for our team? I think that stands for this week as well. But I do know it was a really welcome sight to have him out there. I know he’s very encouraged about how he feels.”

A torn ACL limited Kinlaw to only four games in 2021, but he managed to return from the injury in time for the 2022 regular season. The defensive lineman started three games for San Francisco before suffering more knee issues, leading to his placement on injured reserve.

The 2020 first-round pick earned PFWA All-Rookie Team honors after finishing with 33 tackles and 1.5 sacks. He’s been limited to only seven games over the past two years, collecting 10 tackles. The 49ers defensive line has lost Hassan Ridgeway and Kevin Givens to injuries recently, but the team will get some extra bulk with the return of Kinlaw and Arik Armstead.
