The Falcons invited Robinson to minicamp as a tryout player. However, he has done enough to earn himself a spot on the roster before the 53-man cutdown, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo . Robinson was a fourth-round pick by the Patriots in 2024.

He made 11 starts as a guard in his rookie season, but did not appear in a game last season. The Patriots waived Rbinson in October last year. He was signed to the Las Vegas Raiders practice squad and signed a reserve/future contract with the Raiders in January.

He was waived by the Raiders earlier this month. Now, he will look to survive the roster cutdowns in Atlanta and make the 53-man roster. The Falcons already have Chris Lindstrom and Matthew Bergeron slated to start at guard, so Robinson will be competing to be a backup.
