Allen Robinson a Name to Watch at Steelers Training Camp
The veteran wide receiver should receive first-team reps as soon as the Pittsburgh Steelers open camp.
Transcript
00:00 I think Alan Robinson is looking for a bounce back year.
00:02 He's had phenomenal years in the past.
00:04 I don't think he's a thousand yard receiver,
00:06 but I think that if you could be a 700 yard receiver
00:08 with five to seven touchdowns, that is a huge season.
00:13 But that's where I think he shines.
00:14 Like I think Alan Robinson could be a guy
00:16 that he's your big body.
00:18 He is your unstoppable force in the red zone.
00:20 The Steelers have not had that in a while.
00:23 Maybe that's their guy.
00:25 And I think that you get a glimpse of that in training camp,
00:27 especially against guys like Patrick Peterson,
00:29 Joey Porter Jr., Levi Wallace, Corey,
00:31 like these big Keanu Neal,
00:33 like these big guys that he's gonna have to play
00:36 every day in training camp.
00:38 - Yeah.
00:38 I love the Keanu Neal.
00:40 I'm all in on Keanu Neal, quite honestly.
00:43 Like just personally, I'm really high on him.
00:45 I think he's going to be really, really valuable,
00:48 but like you said, he's gotta be used right.
00:50 Larry O's an interesting one.
00:52 I like that to kind of take that defensive line
00:55 from really good to elite.
00:58 Like he could be a key piece there.
01:00 You know, I don't think I've been very high on Larry O
01:02 in the past, but like you said,
01:04 when if just, if things click for him,
01:07 he's as good as it gets.
01:09 And especially like pairing him alongside,
01:12 you know, if he can play alongside Cam Hayward,
01:16 Alex Highsmith, and TJ Watt,
01:18 like that's gonna leave a lot of single coverage for him.
01:21 And it's gonna, you know, make life a lot easier on him.
01:23 And it's gonna set up a really favorable situation for him.
01:26 So that's a good one to look forward to.
01:28 And Allen Robinson, look, if he's your third receiver
01:31 catching 700 yards and five touchdowns,
01:33 the Steelers are in a fantastic spot.
01:36 And Kenny Pickett has absolutely taken that leap
01:38 that I think we might expect him to.
01:42 Yeah, he could be a game changer too.
01:44 Just, yeah, I just, you gotta hope
01:48 that Allen Robinson stays healthy, right?
01:50 Like that's the really, the only concern.
01:53 Like I feel like if he's on the field,
01:54 he's gonna be really good for them,
01:56 but it's the staying on the field that you worry about.
