Marcus Robinson took a lot of big hits during his career as a Bears receiver. But he was never blindsided on the field like he was in April 2015 when he received some devastating news.
One Sunday morning Robinson was preparing to go to church with his wife, daughter and son when 10-year-old Marcus Robinson Jr. complained about a painful bump on the back of his leg.
The family had just returned from a spring break vacation to Mexico, so Robinson surmised that his son might have been suffering from an infected spider bite.
