We’ve all heard it before. Players carrying themselves a certain way that makes them seem like they are bigger than their stature suggests. That is certainly the case with the Detroit Lions’ newest free agent addition, cornerback Amik Robertson.
Born in the small town of Thiboeaux, Louisiana, Robertson attended Louisiana Tech and was drafted in the fourth-round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Las Vegas Raiders. Since arriving in Las Vegas, his workload and production have gradually improved each season.
And despite only being listed at 5-foot-9, 183 pounds, Robertson has plenty of positional versatility to offer the Lions having spent time both in the slot, and as an outside cornerback.
