The New England Patriots are signing former Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson to a two-year deal worth as much as $8 million, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
Robinson, 24, was a breakout star with the Jaguars in 2020, setting the NFL record for yards from scrimmage by an undrafted rookie with 1,414. A year later, Robinson’s surprisingly small role in the Jaguars offense was one of many bizarre choices made by Urban Meyer, although the running back still managed 989 yards and eight touchdowns before an Achilles tear ended his season.
