(Thousand Oaks) The Los Angeles Rams have signed veteran wide receiver Demarcus Robinson.
Robinson’s representatives at Katz Brothers Sports confirmed the pact on social media on Thursday.
Robinson spent last season with the Baltimore Ravens, finishing the season as the team’s second-largest wide receiver with 48 catches for 458 yards and two touchdowns – all that despite making just five starts in 17 games.
He spent his first six career NFL seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs, catching 145 for 1,679 yards and 14 majors.
Robinson will look for a job with the Rams, who traded wideout Allen Robinson to the Pittsburgh Steelers in April after a disappointing season. The Rams’ aerial game struggled last season, following the summer departures of Robert Woods and Odell Beckham Jr. The Rams were also without Super Bowl MVP Cooper Kupp and all-star quarterback Matthew Stafford, who played just nine games, due to injuries.
Demarcus Robinson will join a group of wide wingers that includes Kupp, Van Jefferson, Ben Skowronek, Tutu Atwell, Tyler Johnson and rookie Puka Nacua.
