For the second time in three weeks, Bleacher Report has named New York Giants wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson a “player who could disappoint in 2022.”
The first instance came back in early June when Kristopher Knox tabbed Robinson as someone who won’t live up to the hype. Then, on Tuesday, Maurice Moton doubled down on that stance.
Kenny Golladay, Sterling Shepard, Kadarius Toney and Darius Slayton all figure to be ahead of Robinson on the depth chart at wide receiver. Furthermore, running back Saquon Barkley expects to take on a sizable role as a pass-catcher, per CBS Sports’ Josina Anderson.
Big Blue might entertain trade offers for Toney and Slayton, according to The Athletic’s Dan Duggan. But even if the Giants deal one of them, Robinson would probably go into the regular season as the No. 4 wideout at best.
At 5’8″ and 185 pounds, Robinson will likely line up in the slot and handle some ball-carrying duties, but he seems primed for a role as more of a gadget player than a consistent threat in the passing game.
