"The season's not going to stop," he said. "Other teams aren't going to take it easy on you because you're going through a little adversity, so there's no reason to even sit and think about it. You've just got to keep going."
Rams coach Jeff Fisher believes his rookie is ready.
Robinson moved to tackle when Long got hurt in the third quarter. Long was blocking Chiefs defensive tackle Vance Walker when he hurt his knee.
Getting all the practice repetitions this week has benefited Robinson, Schottenheimer said.
"I was kind of rusty, but that's what this week of practice is for, just to build up and get used to it again, but it won't take long," said Robinson. "The guys are a little faster. I feel like I've seen that this past week when we played K.C. I just was fighting and trying not to give up any sacks, because I knew I was going to be a little rusty. I didn't have any reps at tackle. But I worked on it a little today, just focusing on my set a little more, angles."
NOTES: The Rams began practice Friday outside at Rams Park but moved inside after going through their walk-through.

"He's done real good," Saffold said. "He's really talented. He's got good feet. He slides well. He understands the offense. I think he's going to do real well."
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Drafted No. 2 overall as a left tackle by St. Louis,Cheap Jerseys Online, Greg Robinson will make his first start in his natural position in Sunday's game at San Francisco.
The 6-foot-5,Cheap China Jerseys, 332-pound Robinson just made his first start of the season in the Rams' fifth game, which was against San Francisco.

That injury forced Robinson to slide over to play tackle,Wholesale Authentic Jerseys. Robinson knows the situation made the position switch necessary.
"Well I think it certainly helps, just being out there working on your pass sets, more than anything fundamentally. System wise, he's done an amazing job with that," Schottenheimer said.

He did not want to become the starting tackle because of an injury.
