Coach Ron Rivera said he believed it was Robinson’s first day back at practice since the shooting. He made a surprise return to the team facility after being release from the hospital.
"It was good to see him out there. He is progressing very well," Rivera said. "Each week he gets to see the doctors and the trainers. They felt now is a good time to see how he does outside."
