Notebook: Leadership of Robison, Griffen Setting Pace in Offseason

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. – Defensive end Brian Robison is the longest-tenured player on Minnesota’s roster.

“Let’s keep that on the down-low,” quipped the 33-year-old after a media member noted his status because of the retirement of Chad Greenway and the departure of Adrian Peterson.

While he’s not the oldest player on the team – that title belongs to cornerback Terence Newman – Robison will be looked to as the sage of the defensive line room.

Robison and line mate Everson Griffen, along with seven other teammates, spoke with Twin Cities media members Tuesday.
