Former Stanford LB Curtis Robinson led the 49ers with 12 tackles yesterday, 5 unassisted. It was actually better than it sounds, he took over for Tatum Bethune, who left the game in the second quarter with an ankle injury. Not bad for a guy with an ACL injury 14 months ago. Robinson and the 49er defense limited Cardinal rushing to 36 yards and a 2.6 ypc average. Which is good because the 49ers had a tough time defending the pass, as Cardinal QB Brissett set an NFL record for pass completions with 47.
In his fifth NFL season, Robinson is having quite a year. He just played in his 11th game...his previous high was six, in 2021, his rookie season, and he's played three games in each of the three seasons in between. He now has 36 career tackles, 1/3rd of which happened yesterday.
