Early life

Robinson was born on November 14, 2000 in Auburn, Washington. [1] He attended Auburn Riverside High School as a teenager, participating in football, basketball, and track. As a senior in 2017, Robinson recorded 35 tackles, two tackles-for-loss, six interceptions, and four pass deflections at cornerback while also making 22 receptions for 640 yards and eight touchdowns as a wide receiver. He was an all-league selection at both positions that year, as well as second-team all-state. [2] This led to him being named the Seattle Times Male Athlete of the Year. [3] Robinson was named a three-star recruit out of high school at cornerback. [4] He committed to play football for Oregon State, explaining that his choice was due to the coaching staff and welcoming atmosphere. [2] [4]

College career

Robinson saw minimal action early in his college career due to a recurring shoulder injury, playing in just eleven games and logging five tackles from 2018 to 2021. [2] [5] As a redshirt junior in 2022, Robinson's role was increased, with him recording 13 tackles and a sack and playing in 12 games, starting one of them. [2] During his two redshirt senior years, Robinson became Oregon State's primary coverage defensive back. [5] In 2023, Robinson again played in 12 games, this time posting 33 tackles, half a sack, a forced fumble, and eight pass deflections. In 2024, Robinson totaled a career-high 38 tackles, two tackles-for-loss, a fumble recovery, and three pass deflections over the course of eight games. [2]
