The Facts: The Seahawks are on the verge of re-signing Robinson. The Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported team's former first-round draft choice was at their facility Monday night and was expecting to sign a contract Tuesday after he passes his physical.
Diehards Line:The ninth selection overall in the 2001 draft, Robinson was released after the 2004 season when alcohol problems were threatening his promising career. But the Seahawks are desperate for a receiver who knows their system because Nate Burleson, Ben Obomanu and Logan Payne have been lost for the season to injuries -- and Bobby Engram and Deion Branch are not ready to return from their injuries. “Desperate times call for desperate measures,” HC Mike Holmgren said.
