Colts cut Josh Robinson..

Didn't take long.

Odd that Robinson and Matt Wells were both draft picks this year and both are out of the NFL now.

Wells is on the Rams PS

J-Rob was also a preseason allstar/fan favorite. Something had to have happened there, because that fall was hard and fast.

They brought in Bradshaw. He's a veteran they could plugin and not put training wheels on.

Headcase probably. JR left under the premise that his PT would be cut. At this point the shump experiment is over and he'd be our starter. We might even be undefeated again too.

Obviously being a fan favorite means nothing, but here's what their official release says.

To make room for Adongo, the Colts waived running back <nobr>Josh Robinson </nobr>. The 2015 sixth-round pick battled some early fumble problems in his rookie season and has been inactive for the past four weeks.


Fumbling will certainly get you cut in the NFL.

You're not serious.

That and I'm sure pass protection had to do with it too. He let Luck get hammered at least once every game he played.

I watched most of his games and saw him fumble at least twice (seems like once in the preseason and once in the regular season). And I saw another near fumble - he was down just a split second before the ball came out.

Then the Colts should definitely draft Shumpert then.

Could be picked up by some team or make the Colts' practice squad

 

[Bulldogg31]

Tiki Barber damn near fumbled his way out of the league, then he figured it out and became a stud. Hope JRob gets another chance.

Gore fumbled on the goal line this season. Jrob wasn't the only one v

 

[DawgatAuburn]

Frank Gore has nearly 15,000 total yards in the NFL and has fumbled about every 75th time in his nearly 3000 touches. To be fair, JRob has only fumbled once in the regular season, but he's also only touched it 23 times.

Colts are a Mess

I'm not saying they should keep JR because we don't know the whole story, but the Colts are a mess this season. I think that they have some serious GM issues. They were winning for awhile with existing talent, but as some of the older players have declined, retired or left, the wheels are coming off. I doubt that JR as a first year RB was cut due to pass protection issues or even fumbling a couple of times. Either there was some off the field issues, heart issues, or the Colts management is just continuing to make bad decisions (i.e. Richardson). If you have aging Frank Gore, why would you cut a young prospect for Ahmad Bradshaw? They certainly shouldn't be playing for this year because this year's team struggled WITH Luck. What do you think they are going to do without Luck? I'd rather invest in a promising young back that might be productive in the next 2-3 years than investing in Bradshaw who is a journeyman at best, aging and probably has a limited usefulness as Gore's backup.
