Los Angeles Rams offensive lineman Greg Robinson refused to talk to the media on Wednesday after practice.
Third-year Los Angeles Rams offensive tackle Greg Robinson refused to talk to the media on Wednesday after practice.
Robinson has been getting a ton of slack for poor play this season. Not only is he getting beat on a regular basis by opposing defensive lineman, he’s also committing an insane amount of penalties. In fact, no player in the NFL has more penalties than the former No. 2 overall pick over the last two seasons.

On Wednesday, Robinson was in no mood to talk:
Greg Robinson declined to speak today. Left locker quickly when he saw reporters waiting to chat, then refused to return for questions.

Before that, Fisher spoke about Robinson’s struggles, per Alden Gonzalez of ESPN:
"“He’s got the talent level to do it. We’ve had some miscues over the last four to six weeks with some mistakes and some penalties and things like that, but he’s determined.”"
Robinson’s rocky third season in the NFL already has some people talking bust. Now there will be questions about his mental toughness thrown in and it doesn’t help when you piss the media off.
Jeff Fisher won't discuss personnel changes for "competitive reasons." Last week he talked plenty about changing his QUARTERBACK. Got it.

Head coach Jeff Fisher has been talking about possibly making changes along the offensive line in recent weeks. While it isn’t clear where Robinson stands with Fisher, there is a chance he at least gets his playing time decreased.
We’ll see how Robinson handles this moving forward, but this certainly wasn’t a good sign for a guy already having a tough season. Sorry to say, he has nobody to blame but himself for whatever comes from this.
