December 5, 2008 The Newark Star-Ledger reports that defensive tackle Fred Robbins (shoulder) is due to return to the starting lineup for the Giants on Sunday.
Our View:Robbins had 5.5 tackles before a banged up shoulder forced him into a backup role. He could see a big increase in production this week.
November 25, 2008 Fred Robbins is dealing with a shoulder injury, and coach Tom Coughlin stated that he had "good flexibility" today, according to the NY Post.

October 31, 2008 Fred Robbins sustained injuries to both hands in last Sunday's battle with Pittsburgh, according to the NY Post.

September 23, 2008 Justin Tuck is off to a nice start this year, but he doesn't think he's even the team's best defensive lineman. Tuck says that honor belongs to Fred Robbins, according to Newsday.
Our View:Robbins has two sacks in each of the last two games and has long been one of the most underrated defensive tackles in the league.
