Reports broke Friday afternoon that the Los Angeles Rams re-signed veteran wide receiver Demarcus Robinson.
On the surface Robinson’s 26 receptions for 371 yards and four touchdowns in his first season in LA doesn’t seem overly impressive, but it’s important to take his 2023 season with context. Robinson began the season behind Cooper Kupp, Van Jefferson, Puka Nacua, and Tutu Atwell on the depth chart. Kupp was injured to start the year and Nacua and Atwell were the most productive receiving threats at the season’s onset. When Kupp returned to health, Jefferson became expendable and the Rams traded him to the Atlanta Falcons as part of a pick swap in the later rounds of the NFL Draft.
