Details surrounding Robinson’s arrest were not immediately known. The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for information at the time of publication.
A product of Florida State, he was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the fourth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He briefly spent time with the Philadelphia Eagles before being waived in August. Injuries kept him sidelined from both teams.
Robinson signed with the Raiders practice squad days later. He was activated in late November against the Chiefs, playing in his first NFL game. He recorded one tackle and played in the three snaps that game.
