Allen Robinson has been one of the top receivers in the NFL for several years – even if his numbers last year don’t suggest that. He posted 1,400 yards and 14 touchdowns in his second NFL season in 2015, earning a Pro Bowl selection and quickly establishing himself as a weapon for the Jaguars.
After years of playing with subpar quarterbacks, Robinson is now a member of the Rams where he’ll catch passes from Matthew Stafford and run routes alongside Cooper Kupp.
Kupp is thrilled to have Robinson as a teammate in Los Angeles, having watched him for a long time. At OTAs this week, Kupp explained what makes Robinson such a good receiver, pointing to his physicality at the catch point. But Robinson is more than just a player who can come down with contested catches. Kupp sees a receiver who gets good releases off the line, works the middle of the field and works defenders at the top of his routes.
