That simply isn't true. Plenty of teams are moving their marquee receivers into the slot for favorable matchups (Calvin Johnson, Marques Colston, Boldin) for a large quantity of snaps.
These are the receivers that Robinson is going to see quite a bit in the slot this season:
Cecil Shorts, Miles Austin, Desean Jackson/Avant (unsure of how much Jackson will spend time there), Nate Washington, Victor Cruz, Welker, Reggie Wayne.
