No deal. Check this from the chron clip below though:

The last time Robinson spoke he said he was prepared to sit out training camp and part of the season.

Missing any part of the regular season would be beyond stupid.
Robinson's biggest play here has to be to get the Texans to write into his agreement that he will not be franchised in 2010. That, plus maybe a freakish risk-averse tendency to another injury, is the only thing I can think of that would keep Robinson from signing his tender right now.
Honestly though, if he misses training camp, I start to wonder about rescinding the tender altogether. Part of what I'm paying Robinson for in the $10 million is his on-field leadership, and if he isn't there, then that's a big negative toward his 2009 value.
