Robinson reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
The 28-year-old linebacker has been activated for three consecutive games, meaning he may return to the 53-man roster as soon as Thursday night against the Panthers. Robinson made no contributions on the stat sheet during his first two appearances of 2020, but he's tallied four combined tackles and a QB hit the past two weeks against Minnesota and Detroit.

Falcons' Edmond Robinson: Called up to active roster again
Rotowire
Robinson has been elevated from the Falcons' practice squad in preparation for Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, Jason Butt of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
With John Cominsky (reserve-COVID-19 list) unavailable for Week 6, Atlanta has rallied defensive reinforcements from the practice squad, summoning Robinson and Chris Slayton to provide depth in the front seven. Robinson has made two appearances for the Falcons so far this season, fielding 21 special-teams snaps and 16 defensive snaps but having no tackles to his name as of yet. Minnesota ranks fourth in the NFL with 160.6 rushing yards per game, but the team will be without star running back Dalvin Cook (groin) for this contest.

Edmond Robinson: Demoted to practice squad
Rotowire
Robinson has been moved to the practice squad from the Falcons' active roster, Jason Butt of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
The 28-year-old last received an NFL snap in 2017, when he was a member of the Jets, but with Foyesade Oluokun (hamstring) unable to suit up for Week 3, Atlanta was left searching for a competent replacement at linebacker. Robinson fielded 20 percent of the defensive snaps against Chicago, plus an additional 30 percent of the special-teams work, while Mykal Walker (88 percent) and Deion Jones (93 percent) got the majority of the reps at linebacker. Robinson will reside on the practice squad unless injuries or ineffectiveness affect players on the active roster.
