Just last year, the Jets traded for Robinson after Breece Hall was injured and everyone thought it was a great move. Now he’s can’t crack the Giants roster as a 3rd stringer. Life does come at you fast.

Achilles injuries are a death blow for RB’s.

Chargers just released Carlo Kemp  he was having really nice preseason must be a numbers game

Did not know that.  Interesting that he was born in Buffalo.

He was their 3rd round pick just two years ago. I remember he had his fans on here because of his elite speed. Turns out he couldn't do anything other than run fast.

In Dorsey’s “go for 40 yards on 3rd and 2” offense, another speedster may not be so bad.

TE OJ Howard cut from the Raiders - he was with the Bills for a preseason & is still not good.

The mystery isn't why he keeps getting cut.  The mystery is why he keeps getting signed.

HOW? He's tricked more teams into signing him than the Kardashians' plastic surgeon has tricked NBA players.

Yeah I knew he went to Canisius when his dad was coaching the Bills, I never knew he was born here too.

That's, cool, but I'm less interested in that, than I am that he sounds like a good high-ceiling project at a position the Bills need and the Browns gave him up for only an anonymous RB.  We've got RBs to spare.  I wonder if Beane was trying to make this deal and just lost out.

He was born in 1997 and dad was playing for the Giants at the time.  Odd.

His dad was RB coach for us at one point. Lured to Michigan to coach and sway his son to sign there.

 

All of this is a faint memory and I'm only 67% sure of it.

You forgot to mention Dorsey’s high scoring offense…but that is expected in your continual ***** posts.

Exhibit A of why RBs don’t get huge contracts. The slide can be fast and fatal.

Yes but around 16 years after he was born.

That’s worth a 3rd, maybe 2nd, round mom pick in the Little League draft.

His dad was playing for the giants at the time. I wonder how he ended up being born here and if he grew up here or came back in high school. His parents have 5 kids together so it's not like a one nighter with a Buffalo girl.

Even when he ran fast,  he quickly hurt himself too.
