Why the Chiefs would be interested: Let’s be honest: there’s likely not a single contending team in the National Football League that wouldn’t at least put some sort of offer together for Robinson if the defensive tackle were made available.
It’s taken some time for Robinson, a former Alabama product, to put it all together in the pros as the godsend of a run-stuffer he was supposed to be coming into the league. He was known, however, as a bit of a project, so some time made sense even though Detroit was getting a little frustrated during his first two seasons—largely seen as a disappointing period by Lions fans.
