"Guard Layden Robinson was recently let go from the Las Vegas Raiders, and now, he could be facing an early career crossroads. Some Patriots fans might remember Robinson from his starting 11 games as a rookie back in 2024. You might also remember him for the wrong reasons, as Robinson was one of the worst guards in football that year, per Pro Football Focus."
"Robinson finished with an overall grade of 43.6, which was good for ranking 74th out of a possible 77 qualifying guards that season. Needless to say, the Patriots had to revamp that offensive line for Drake Maye. After only one season with the team, Robinson was waived-injured in August of 2025 for an undisclosed reason."
"After not being on the field all of 2025, Robinson is staring at a harsh reality. Could he be out of the league after just two seasons? His rookie campaign was about as bad as it could've gotten. Of course, being put in a position where he had to start that many games as a fourth-round pick wasn't exactly the best course of action for his development."
Layden Robinson, drafted by the New England Patriots in the fourth round, started 11 games as a rookie in 2024 but performed poorly, earning a Pro Football Focus grade of 43.6, ranking 74th out of 77 qualifying guards. The Patriots released him in August 2025 due to injury. Robinson subsequently signed with the Las Vegas Raiders to finish the season but saw limited playing time. The Raiders have now waived him as part of their roster overhaul, leaving Robinson facing a critical juncture in his career. At just two seasons into his NFL tenure, he risks being out of professional football entirely.
