The Athletic: A Fully Healthy Allen Robinson II ‘Primed’ For Breakout Season With Steelers

Entering his age-30 season, veteran wide receiver Allen Robinson II finds himself in a relatively strong situation with the Pittsburgh Steelers and second-year quarterback Kenny Pickett after being acquired via trade ahead of the 2023 NFL Draft.

Pickett under center, high-end weapons around him, and a return to full health has Robinson looking like a legitimate breakout candidate in 2023, at least according to The Athletic’s Mark Kaboly.

“It seems strange to label a soon-to-be-30-year-old, nine-year vet with more than 500 career receptions as a breakout player. But a healthy Robinson is primed to have his best season since back-to-back monster years with the Bears in 2019 and 2020 when he was one of the top pass catchers in the NFL,” Kaboly writes for The Athletic highlighting Robinson as the Steelers’ breakout candidate.
