Vikings Quickly Acquire Cam Robinson from Jaguars After Darrisaw's Injury

Oct 29, 2024, 11:17 PM

The Minnesota Vikings have acquired left tackle Cam Robinson from the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for draft pick compensation. Following the loss of starting left tackle Christian Darrisaw to a season-ending knee injury, the Vikings moved quickly to fortify their offensive line. Robinson, 29, a franchise-tagged player with a base salary exceeding $16 million this season, had started all 91 games he played for the Jaguars before being recently benched in favor of Walker Little. Coming off a concussion but cleared to play, Robinson remained sidelined as Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson decided to stick with Little. The Jaguars may have absorbed a portion of Robinson's salary to facilitate the trade, as they continue to accumulate draft picks by moving veteran players. This move strengthens the Vikings' offensive front as they aim to maintain their playoff push.
