James Robinson's Short-Lived Stint with the Patriots.

The New England Patriots have released running back James Robinson just three months after signing him to a two-year contract with a base value of $4 million. Robinson's health and lack of explosiveness were cited as reasons for his release. The Patriots are now looking to fill the void left by the departure of Damien Harris, with Rhamondre Stevenson, Pierre Strong Jr., Kevin Harris, and Ty Montgomery all in the mix. Robinson's tenure with the Jets was also marked by frustration over his lack of playing time.

Patriots Cut Running Back James Robinson Due to Injury Concerns.

The New England Patriots waived running back James Robinson due to concerns about his health and lack of explosiveness during offseason practices. Robinson tore his Achilles while with the Jaguars in 2021 and was able to return to action last season. The Patriots guaranteed $150,000 of Robinson’s salary, but are not responsible for any other portion of his two-year contract. Rhamondre Stevenson, Ty Montgomery, Pierre Strong, Kevin Harris, and J.J. Taylor are now in the backfield mix for the Patriots.

Patriots Cut Ties with RB James Robinson After 3 Months

The New England Patriots have waived running back James Robinson less than three months after signing him to a two-year deal worth up to $8 million. Robinson struggled in his short time with the New York Jets last season, averaging just 21.3 rushing yards per game on 2.9 yards per carry in four games with the team. The undrafted free agent burst onto the scene during his rookie season in Jacksonville, but his stats dwindled before he suffered a torn Achilles in a Week 16 loss to the Jets. Robinson was expected to add depth to the running back position for the upcoming season, but he will now be a free agent if he clears waivers.

Patriots Release RB James Robinson During Minicamp

The New England Patriots have released running back James Robinson, who was vying to replace Damien Harris as the top running back behind Rhamondre Stevenson. Robinson had agreed to a two-year deal with a base value of $4 million on March 15, but it included no guaranteed money and was structured in a way that protected the Patriots based on Robinson's injury history. Robinson tore an Achilles late in 2021 while playing for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

James Robinson joins Patriots in 2-year deal.

The New England Patriots have signed running back James Robinson to a two-year contract worth a maximum value of $8 million. Robinson set a record for most yards from scrimmage (1,414) for an undrafted rookie during the 2020 season, but has been hampered by injuries as of late. He adds a much-needed wrinkle to New England’s offense and will likely lighten the load for Rhamondre Stevenson. Robinson's arrival likely spells the end for Damien Harris in Foxborough.

Patriots Bolster Backfield and Re-Sign Former Wolverines in NFL

The New England Patriots have signed former Jets and Jaguars running back James Robinson to a two-year contract to bolster their backfield depth. Robinson is expected to serve as Rhamondre Stevenson's top backup and add more in the passing game than expected for a 220-pound back. He caught 80 passes in his first two seasons and is a useful screen back. Robinson brings a hard-nosed work ethic and consistently gets the job done when given the opportunity. He joins former Chiefs wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster as the second skill player addition for the Patriots on the first official day of NFL free agency.
