Robinson returns from high ankle sprain to provide vertical stretch for 49ers offense.

Robinson returns from high ankle sprain suffered in Week 2 after playing just one and a half games to start the season. The 49ers have missed his vertical field-stretching ability; he had a 39-yard touchdown against the Rams in Week 1 (two catches, 50 yards) and three catches for 34 yards in Week 2 against Miami. With the 49ers' wide receiver core still beaten up and struggling with separation, Kyle Shanahan is expected to target Robinson for vertical plays this weekend against the Raiders.
