Falcons | Atlanta hires Zac Robinson Sun Jan 28, 10:28 AM
Los Angeles Rams pass-game coordinator Zac Robinson is being hired as offensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons, according to sources Saturday, Jan. 27.
| Footballguys view: This is what's called a win-win situation. Robinson is on the fast track to be a head coach, and he might be one sooner than some think. For now, he gets to take over an offense that features a ton of weapons like WR Drake London, TE Kyle Pitts, RBs Bijan Robinson, and Tyler Allgeier. If the Falcons can land the right quarterback, Robinson should be quite successful with this promotion. |

Buccaneers | Tampa Bay requests Zac Robinson interview Fri Jan 26, 11:56 AM
Los Angeles Rams quarterbacks coach and pass game coordinator Zac Robinson was requested to interview for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator vacancy Friday, Jan. 26.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is one of the hottest names in the offensive coordinator market after having great success under Sean McVay in 2023. The Saints, Steelers, Patriots, and Raiders are all showing interest in him in addition to the Bucs. |

Steelers | Pittsburgh seeks Zac Robinson interview Mon Jan 22, 03:40 PM
Los Angeles Rams pass-game coordinator Zac Robinson was requested to interview for the Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator vacancy, according to sources Monday, Jan. 22.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is a fast riser in coaching circles, and he's on the fast track to be a head coach someday. His next step is offensive coordinator, and the Steelers need a ton of help on that side of the ball. If hired, Robinson will be in charge of turning things around for QB Kenny Pickett...or whatever quarterback the Steelers have under center next year. |

Bears | Zac Robinson interviewing for Bears OC role Thu Jan 18, 12:12 PM
Los Angeles Rams pass-game coordinator and quarterbacks coach Zac Robinson is interviewing with the Chicago Bears for their offensive coordinator vacancy, according to sources Thursday, Jan. 18.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is on track to be a head coach someday. He's done great work with the Rams, and has a bright future having come from the Shanahan system. The Bears may have Caleb Williams (USC) as their starter, or they may end up keeping Justin Fields and continuing to build around him. Either way, a coach like Robinson would be fantastic for either player. |

Ravens | Zac Robinson talks with Baltimore Tue Jan 24, 04:21 PM
Los Angeles Rams pass game coordinator/quarterbacks coach Zac Robinson conducted a virtual interview with the Baltimore Ravens regarding their offensive coordinator vacancy Tuesday, Jan. 24.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is on the fast track to being a head coach someday. The next move for him is to be an offensive coordinator. He's getting some interest out there from the Chargers and the Ravens. We think the Ravens would be a fine landing spot where Robinson could learn under HC John Harbaugh. |

Ravens | Zac Robinson of interest to Baltimore Fri Jan 20, 03:02 PM
Los Angeles Rams pass game coordinator/quarterbacks coach Zac Robinson is receiving interest from the Baltimore Ravens regarding their offensive coordinator vacancy, and the Ravens have requested permission to interview Robinson, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is on track to one day be a head coach. He's working his way up the ranks much like Mike McDaniel or Matt LaFleur did years ago. The Ravens need to develop an offense around QB Lamar Jackson. Oh yeah, they need to pay Jackson as one of the top quarterbacks in this game. |

Chargers | LA Chargers intrigued by Zac Robinson Fri Jan 20, 02:59 PM
Los Angeles Rams pass game coordinator/quarterbacks coach Zac Robinson is receiving interest from the Los Angeles Chargers regarding their offensive coordinator vacancy, and the Chargers have requested permission to interview Robinson, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Robinson would be a great hire for the Chargers. However, as a future head coach himself does he want to land on staff with Brandon Staley? We'll likely see Staley on the hot seat in 2023, and if the Chargers fall short of a deep postseason run (again) then the whole staff could get cleared out. |

Zac Robinson player page Bengals | Cut Zac Robinson Fri May 2, 03:06 PM
The Cincinnati Bengals cut QB Zac Robinson with a failed physical designation Friday, May 2.
| Footballguys view: The Chatfield Charger has bounced around to four different teams during his four-year NFL career. Originally a seventh-round pick by the Patriots in 2010, Robinson could latch on with a team in need of a third-string quarterback. The Bengals now move forward with Josh Johnson and Jason Campbell as the two reserves behind Andy Dalton. |

The Cincinnati Bengals elected not to activate QB Zac Robinson (elbow) from the Physically Unable to Perform list, meaning he'll miss the rest of the season. Also, they waived FB Chris Pressley Tuesday, Dec. 10.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is a developmental quarterback and has little fantasy value even in super deep dynasty leagues. |

Bengals | Josh Johnson appears to be favorite for No. 2 QB job Wed Jul 10, 02:26 PM
Cincinnati Bengals QB Josh X. Johnson appears to have an edge over QBs John Skelton and Zac Robinson for the No. 2 quarterback job entering training camp because he is the best runner among the quarterbacks, can throw the ball deep and knows the offensive system.
| Footballguys view: Johnson is an athletic QB who can make plays with his legs. He's not afraid to challenge a defense with his arm but struggles with accuracy on the run. We don't think he'll have any problem beating out Skelton or Robinson for the QB2 job in Cincinnati. |

Bengals | Josh Johnson has advantage Thu Jun 6, 08:27 AM
Cincinnati Bengals QB Josh X. Johnson has a slight advantage over QBs John Skelton and Zac Robinson in the backup quarterback battle because of his previous experience in the West Coast offense.
| Footballguys view: Bengals OC Jay Gruden was with the Buccaneers when the team selected Johnson (San Diego) in the fifth-round of the 2008 NFL draft. He should have no trouble winning the backup job behind Andy Dalton this season. |

The Cincinnati Bengals have signed FB Jourdan Brooks, LS Bryce Davis, RB Dan Herron, OG Otis Hudson, LB Emmanuel Lamur, CB Chris Lewis-Harris and QB Zac Robinson to their practice squad.
| Footballguys view: We like Dan 'Boom' Herron's intent running style and determination between the tackles. He could develop into a nice player for the future and is one to watch in super deep dynasty leagues. |

| Footballguys view: The Bengals spent a draft pick on Herron, but Matt Waldman favorite Cedric Peerman hung on to a roster spot and beat Herron out to make the final 53. The former Ohio State back should end up on a practice squad somewhere. |

Bengals | Two will compete for No. 3 QB job Sun Jul 15, 02:26 PM
Cincinnati Bengals QBs Zac Robinson and Tyler Hansen will compete for the No. 3 quarterback job during training camp. Robinson has the benefit of being in the system for the year but Hansen did make some good throws during offseason workouts.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is a smart leader who knows how to distribute the football. He's not the biggest QB but can be accurate on short and underneath routes. Hansen is an impressive athlete but has poor arm mechanics. His ability to keep plays alive could earn him a spot on the practice squad as a developmental prospect. |

Bengals | Make roster moves Tue Sep 6, 04:11 PM
The Cincinnati Bengals signed free-agent CB Rico Murray (Bengals) and QB Zac Robinson (Lions) to undisclosed deals Tuesday, Sept. 6, and released QB Dan LeFevour from the practice squad.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is a quality developmental QB who the Bengals saw as a better option over LeFevour. He has high football intelligence and could be a good fit for the Jay Gruden system. Robinson doesn't have a rocket arm, but is a rhythm passer who understands what a defense is trying to do. |

Lions | Drew Stanton wins third-string role Sun Sep 4, 03:00 AM
Detroit Lions backup QB Drew Stanton won the team's No. 3 quarterback duties. He was battling with QB Zac Robinson, who was released Saturday, Sept. 3.

Lions | Zac Robinson looks improved Sat Jul 30, 04:23 PM
Detroit Lions QB Zac Robinson appears to be throwing the ball better and has a better grip on the offense during training camp. However, it is unlikely he will be able to beat out Drew Stanton for the No. 3 quarterback duties.
| Footballguys view: Robinson is better than most people think. He's a tough player who isn't afraid to stand in the pocket to deliver the football. His arm is strong enough to make most throws and he has high football intelligence. |

The Detroit Lions have claimed free-agent QB Zac Robinson (Seahawks) off waivers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
| Footballguys view: Zac Robinson has bounced around the league during his rookie season, but people in the scouting community like him as a developmental quarterback. He doesn't have the strongest arm, but can move around in the pocket and keep plays alive with his feet. The Lions need more QB depth while both Matthew Stafford and Shaun Hill miss time due to injury. |

Head coach Pete Carroll said QB Charlie Whitehurst will receive most of the repetitions in practice with QB Zac Robinson also seeing a few reps.
| Footballguys view: Hasselbeck is likely to become another pelt on the Giants defense's wall if he does play, so maybe it's best for Whitehurst to get thrown into the fire on Sunday. |

Patriots | Rookie QB Robinson's fate in his own hands Mon Jul 26, 11:43 AM
Mike Reiss, from ESPNBoston.com, notes the Patriots kept only two quarterbacks (Tom Brady, Brian Hoyer) on the roster last year but could carry three this season if rookie Zac Robinson shows enough promise in training camp and the preseason.
| Footballguys view: Robinson struggled last year after WR Dez Bryant was suspended, but he started turning heads at the Senior Bowl earlier this year. He's athletic, will buy time with his feet while keeping his eyes downfield, and has a stronger arm than most give him credit for. If he impresses in camp then the Patriots could keep him around as a developmental project. There's also a chance he could get cut, and signed to the practice squad. |

Patriots | Kade Weston, Zac Robinson signed Wed Jul 21, 03:16 PM
The New England Patriots have signed seventh-round draft choices DL Kade Weston and QB Zac Robinson, according to Karen Guregian, of the Boston Herald. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Robinson put up some good numbers at Oklahoma State when working with Dez Bryant. However, when Bryant was suspended most of last year Robinson struggled. Our very own Cecil Lammey and Matt Waldman watched Robinson up close during the week of practice at the Senior Bowl in Mobile, AL earlier this year and were surprised by his overall game. Robinson doesn't have a strong arm, and his lack of size was a concern for some NFL scouts. The Patriots will work to develop Robinson, and he could end up on their practice squad after training camp. Currently, second-year QB Brian Hoyer is the primary backup to Tom Brady. |

Eagles | Z. Robinson visits Tue Apr 13, 09:53 PM
Aaron Wilson, of the National Football Post, reports Oklahoma State QB Zac Robinson visited with the Philadelphia Eagles Tuesday, April 13, according to league sources.
| Footballguys view: Zac Robinson is currently seen as a fifth-round pick, but showed at the Senior Bowl that he has the upside to develop into a starting caliber quarterback. His arm is strong enough to make all the throws in the NFL, and he can keep plays alive with his feet while keeping his eyes down field. |

Oklahoma State QB Zac Robinson measured in at the NFL Scouting Combine with a height of 6-foot-2 1/2, 214 pounds.
| Footballguys view: Robinson surprised a lot of people at the Senior Bowl with his arm strength and comfort running the offense from a traditional set. He currently has a sixth-round grade. |
NFL | Six from Oklahoma State invited to NFL Combine Wed Feb 3, 12:23 AM
NFLCombine.net reports Oklahoma State FS Lucien Antoine, WR Dez Bryant, CB Perrish Cox, OT Russell Okung, QB Zac Robinson and RB Keith Toston have been invited to participate in the 2010 NFL Scouting Combine Feb. 24 to March 2.
| Footballguys view: Bryant is thought by many to be the best receiver in this draft class because of his amazing hands and body control. Robinson surprised some scouts with his solid performance at the Senior Bowl, and he could develop into a solid backup at the next level. Toston had a solid showing at the Shrine Game, but is not likely to be a feature back in the pros. |
