During his high school career, helped his team win the Michigan Division 3 state championship game. As a senior, Robinson recorded magnificent numbers including two interceptions, two punt return touchdowns, and 720 yards with 44 passing catches accumulating 10 touchdowns.

    College career

    Robinson began his college career in 2011 at Penn State where he made recorded amazing and vital performances. As a freshman he only logged 29 yards from 3 passes, however, the first game he officially started in was against Wisconsin on the road. The game against Wisconsin was vital in determining the Big Ten Leaders Division winner.

    2012 (Robinson’s sophomore season) was a major step up in regards to the stats and his overall gameplay. Robinson caught a cumulative 77 passes for 1,013 yards, and 11 touchdowns within 12 games. 

    During this year Robinson led the Big Ten division in all three categories (passes, receiving touchdowns, and receiving yards).  A notable achievement within his reception bracket is breaking the team’s previous receiving leaders O.J. McDuffie (1992), and Bobby Engram (1995) whom both tied at 63 receptions. 

    In 2013, Robinson stepped up his stats even higher, which essentially helped him become a draft pick worth considering in the NFL. Robinson played 12 games catching 97 passes for 1,432 yards, and 6 touchdowns. This year he re-claimed his top spots in receptions and receiving yards. Robinson became a vital member of the team in his last season as a Nittany Lion.

    NFL Draft 

    Robinson received the well-deserved moment he dreamed of signifying his entrance into the NFL. The Jacksonville Jaguars drafted Robinson with their second round (61st overall) pick. With this draft pick Robinson signed a four-year contract, which the salary included a signing bonus ($877,718), $3.51 million (overall), and $1.17 million (guaranteed).

A notable game Robinson was a part of included is first touchdown in the NFL against the Cleveland Browns. His first touchdown ultimately helped the Jaguars overcome their 9-game losing streak. 

    Showing much promise, Robinson continued to improve his game during the off-season leading into his second year. Since the Jaguars did not make it to postseason, this was the perfect time to reflect on the NFL experience.

His season high stats included 10 receptions in a game (against the Tennessee Titans), 80 receptions overall, 14 touchdowns, and 1,400 receiving yards. Robinson cemented his name in the Jaguar’s history by becoming the first to record over 1,000 receiving yards in a complete season since Jimmy Smith (1996).

    The Jaguars finished the season 5-11, Robinson still had an amazing year. He was able to play in the 2016 Pro Bowl game replacing Calvin Johnson of the Detroit Lions (he declined the offer to play in the game).  

    2016 was not Robinson’s best year based on stats, nonetheless he maintained decent gameplay. With 73 receptions, 883 receiving yards, and 6 touchdowns, he did the best that he could for the team. The Jaguars finished the 2016 regular season 3-13.
