New Orleans Saints' running back Khiry Robinson is expected to return to the lineup in Week 14 as his arm injury is essentially healed up. But Robinson will likely be eased back into the lineup and will take things slow, according to Mike Triplett of ESPN. Robinson last played on Oct. 19 against the Detroit Lions.
Khiry Robinson expected to take things slow upon return; fantasy value low
Khiry Robinson will likely be back in Week 14. We break down the fantasy implications.

Robinson was earning himself more playing time when he went down with the injury. He had put up totals of 69, 87 and 89 yards over the three games before the Detroit game in which he got injured. On the season, he had 64 carries for 330 yards and two touchdowns, a per-carry average of 5.2 yards. Since Robinson's injury, Mark Ingram has returned and has looked solid.
Fantasy Impact: Robinson taking things slow seems guaranteed at this point. He may have had some fantasy value prior to his injury, but upon his return he doesn’t offer a whole lot to fantasy owners looking to make a late-season push. He’s not worth submitting a waiver claim for at this point.
