Darius Robinson to make NFL debut; Jalen Thompson returns to lineup

Arizona Cardinals fans will finally get to see the NFL debut of first-round pick defensive lineman Darius Robinson. The team released its inactive list 90 minutes before kickoff against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 13 and he was not included for the first time.

Robinson, who started the season on injured reserve with a calf injury, has been working for weeks since being activated. He has had two full weeks of practice.

The Cardinals have a plan for his usage. With him being active, defensive lineman Khyiris Tonga will not dress.

Returning to the lineup after missing two games with an ankle injury is safety Jalen Thompson.

Here are the Cardinals’ inactive players for Week 13:

Okwara has fallen out of the rotation since the acquisition of Baron Browning. Jones, Vokolek and Weaver have been regularly inactive.
