Cam Robinson filled in admirably at left tackle for the Minnesota Vikings<\/a> in 2024 after Christian Darrisaw suffered an ACL tear in Week 8. The Vikings traded for Robinson during their bye week following the game, giving him little time to get up to speed with the offense.<\/p>\n

The Houston Texans<\/a> signed Robinson in March, expecting him to protect C.J. Stroud’s blindside in 2025. But can he handle the responsibility? Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report isn’t so sure, saying that Robinson could be the Texans’ biggest bust of the season<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Robinson has always been a serviceable starter when healthy but never a star. He appeared in 17 games last season with the Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a> and Minnesota Vikings and was responsible for 13 penalties and seven sacks allowed, according to Pro Football Focus<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With a one-year, $12 million contract, Robinson’s price point is reasonable. However, he isn’t likely to make fans forget about Tunsil\u2014and that’s assuming he manages to hold off rookie second-round pick Aireontae Ersery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Robinson did allow a league-high 64 pressures in 2024, but we’ll give him some grace because of the strenuous situation he was thrown into. He has talent, as evidenced by his selection as the 34th overall pick in the 2017 draft.<\/p>\n

Can he protect Stroud for a full season, helping the Texans get over the playoff hump? Robinson is being counted on to do his part. We’ll see if he can hold his own with a full offseason to prepare for the role.<\/p>\n
