Rashard Robinson (born July 23, 1995) is an American football cornerback for the Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League (NFL). He played college footballatLSU, and was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in the fourth round of the 2016 NFL Draft.
Robinson was born in Pompano Beach, Florida, where he attended Blanche Ely High School.
Robinson attended Louisiana State University, where he played two seasons of college football for the LSU Tigers under head coach Les Miles. He recorded one interception and 30 tackles in 15 games.[1]
Robinson was suspended indefinitely from LSU's football team midway through the 2014 season due to a failed drug test and substandard academics.[2][3] After missing a semester, he was arrested in June 2015 for unauthorized entry into a teammate's apartment and was not allowed to re-enroll.[4][5] He returned to Florida and enrolled at Broward CollegeinFort Lauderdale, where he began training for the NFL Draft.[3]
Coming out of LSU, Robinson was by the majority of NFL draft experts and scouts to be a fourth or fifth round pick. He received an invitation to the NFL combine and boasted he would run a 4.2 forty-yard dash. Robinson's performance was sub-par and he elected to skip the bench press and wasn't able to complete the short shuttle or three-cone drill after suffering a calf injury. On March 14, 2016, he attended LSU's Pro Day, but held a private workout afterwards due to his tumultuous past with the team. All 32 NFL teams were in attendance as Robinson opted to complete all of the combine and positional drills. He was able to shorten his times in the 40 (4.40), 20 (2.61), and 10-yard dash (1.60) from the combine. Robinson was ranked as the 16th best cornerback prospect in the draft by NFLDraftScout.com. NFL analysts and scouts cited his thin frame, off the field problems, spindly legs, and character concerns were cited as his top issues. Robinson was considered to be one of the top press corners in the draft and was described in scouting reports as a player with a long frame and great man coverage ability. He also has blazing straight line speed and explosiveness.[6]
