Arizona Cardinals DL Darius Robinson displayed everything the team saw on his college tape.
ARIZONA -- Arizona Cardinals rookie defensive lineman Darius Robinson impressed in his preseason debut - despite not filling up the box score.
Robinson registered just one tackle during his time on the field against New Orleans, though what he displayed on tape was rather strong and provided a glimpse into the powerful defensive lineman he could be at the next level."Robinson played just 10 snaps during the Cardinals' loss to the Saints, but that was enough time for him to provide a glimpse into why Arizona used a first-round pick to secure his services in April.
"The former Missouri Tiger then shed veteran guard Cesar Ruiz with strong hands and a quick first step on second down. Robinson forced his way to the quarterback on third down on the second series, reaching through the left guard with his plus length to hit Derek Carr just after he threw the ball. "Penning couldn't reach the quick Robinson on a run play on the next series and then drew a holding call on the next snap after preventing Robinson from chasing the scrambling quarterback to the outside. The small sample of plays exhibited what a nice fit Robinson will be for Arizona's defense."“He looked good. I thought he looked good. I need to watch some tape on that but I saw that he made one play in there.
Robinson looks to build on his success as the Cardinals fly back east to play the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2.Donnie Druin is the Publisher for All Cardinals and Inside The Suns.
