D. Robinson signs with Falcons
The Atlanta Falcons made a big splash in free agency by signing cornerback Dunta Robinson. Terms of the deal have not yet been disclosed.
Robinson did not receive a contract offer from the Houston Texans, who let him go without much resistance, deciding he wasn’t worth the money it would take to bring him back.
The young cornerback has plenty of talent but was inconsistent during his time with the Texans. He started all 16 games in his rookie season.
Atlanta is hopeful that he can help to solidify a defense that has been the downfall of the team. The team ranked just 28th in the NFL against the pass last season.
Robinson would instantly become Atlanta’s No. 1 cornerback, but the pressure shouldn’t be anything more than he faced when he was in the same position with the Texans.
