2022 Fantasy Outlook
Much like the Jaguars' season as a whole, Robinson's 2021 featured some wild swings of fortune, with infrequent highs and all too many lows. The team's decision to draft Travis Etienne late in the first round seemed to relegate the incumbent starter to a committee role, but then Etienne broke his foot in August and was lost for the year. After a sluggish performance out of
the gate, Robinson scored five TDs in four games Weeks 3-6 while averaging 97.0 rushing
yards per game, but after Jacksonville's bye, multiple lower-body injuries sapped his
effectiveness and his campaign finally ended for good due to a partial Achilles tear in Week 16.
It's not yet clear if he'll be ready to begin this season, but even if he is, a healthy Etienne figures to be prominently featured. Robinson runs with power and purpose, using his vision and agility to attack the defense, and he's shown he is an asset on passing downs as well. Etienne hasn't proven anything yet in the pros, but he has the advantage of being a high draft pick compared to Robinson's status as an undrafted free agent, not to mention the better health prognosis heading into training camp.

Gets two-year deal with New England
Robinson agreed to a two-year contract with the Patriots on Wednesday, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Robinson's deal can be worth up to $8 million with incentives. After bursting onto the scene with 1,847 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns across his first two professional seasons with Jacksonville, Robinson struggled during an injury riddled 2022 campaign, mustering just 425 yards and three touchdowns on the ground in 11 appearances between the Jaguars and Jets. He tore his Achilles late in the 2021 season and battled a knee injury in 2022, but the Patriots are hoping that Robinson will regain his pre-injury form while contributing to a backfield led by Rhamondre Stevenson.

Jerry Donabedian surveys all of Wednesday's transactions and hones in on the moves that matter most for fantasy.

Miles Sanders helped set the free agent running back market into motion Wednesday by agreeing to a four-year contract with Carolina.

Jerry Donabedian looks at top performers from 2022 and checks in on players rehabbing serious injuries or potentially headed for free agency.

Cam Akers took on the third-largest snap share of all running backs Week 17, playing more than three-fourths of the Ram' snaps for a third straight week.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
While a number of first-year running backs made impacts in 2020, none was more surprising than Robinson. The undrafted rookie pushed his way up the depth chart in camp, and the Jaguars were impressed enough with his efforts that they cut Leonard Fournette just before the start of the regular season. If the team had thoughts of using a committee, Robinson quickly ruined those plans too, as he seized the starting job and saw no fewer than 16 touches in a game until an ankle injury cost him the final two weeks of the season. A powerful, physical runner, Robinson doesn't have great speed but instead uses his vision and nimble feet to avoid big blows, with his 36 broken tackles tied for seventh among RBs. He also proved to be capable as a receiver and was a willing pass protector, allowing him to stay on the field in all situations. Despite his rookie success, the Jaguars invested a late first-round pick in Travis Etienne, who is seemingly a better fit for the spread offense that could accompany first overall selection Trevor Lawrence and new offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell. However, Etienne then suffered a season-ending foot injury in late August, leaving Robinson and 30-year-old Carlos Hyde as the Week 1 backfield options in Jacksonville. It's a setup that points to Robinson leading the way again, and perhaps even reprising the three-down role he earned as a rookie last year.
