For the most part, New York Giants training camp has gone about as clean as possible. No real injuries, no headlines that make you hold your breath. It’s been quiet — in a good way.
That changed Sunday in East Rutherford. During the team’s morning session, receiver Wan’Dale Robinson came up hobbling after a play (unable to tell if it was another collision or non-contact). He limped off the field in visible frustration and needed assistance from trainers on the sideline. While there's no official update yet, it didn't look all that serious, but still never great to see and it'll be something to keep an eye out for.

Now Wan’Dale Robinson limped to the sidelines to get looked at. He ran around during team drills but went down

It’s worth noting that Robinson was involved in a scary collision with Brian Burns just two days earlier. That hit resulted in both players being temporarily held out with soreness, though neither suffered anything serious. There’s no indication the two incidents are related at all, but the timing won’t settle any nerves.
Wan'Dale Robinson’s value is too important to overlook in this offense
Up until now, Robinson had been stacking together one of the more consistent camps of any player on the roster. He’s still the team’s most reliable slot option, and has made a handful of highlight plays already — including a leaping, full-extension touchdown catch in the back of the end zone that unofficially instantly became the play of the day.
Robinson’s value doesn’t need a sales pitch. He hauled in 93 passes last season and was the only other Giants receiver outside Nabers to finish inside the league’s top 15 in catches.
His yards-per-catch numbers (7.5) weren’t pretty, but that had a lot more to do with quarterback play than ability. He’s already shown better vertical separation this summer and looks more comfortable pushing downfield. That helps, especially when Russell "moonball" Wilson is your new QB.
With Jalin Hyatt still easing back from some cramping and tightness, and Slayton continuing to build momentum with a strong camp, the G-Men can afford to be cautious with Robinson. The injury doesn't appear serious, but it’s July — there’s no reason to push him right now. Robinson’s already shown enough to prove his value in this offense. Now the focus shifts to making sure he’s ready when the snaps actually count.
