The Facts: HC Sean Payton revealed that Robinson is expected to return from an arm injury next week against the Carolina Panthers while denouncing a report that the Saints had shown any interest in reinstated running back Ray Rice. “We like our running back depth,” Payton said. “And if you do a little research, Khiry’s coming back next week.”

Diehards Line: Robinson has missed the past six games with an unspecified arm injury. He hasn’t returned to the practice field yet but hinted on Twitter that he was close to a return. And he was seen in the locker room without a brace on the arm. Chances are, the Saints will ease Robinson back into the mix -- especially since Mark Ingram has done so well in a leading role and since Pierre Thomas returned from his own shoulder and rib injuries last week. But it will be interesting to see how the Saints divvy up the touches once Robinson is back to full speed. Bottom line, as ESPN.com's Mike Triplett laid it out: "Robinson’s return will be a 'good problem' for the Saints but a possible headache for fantasy owners."
