Patriots sign fourth-round pick Layden Robinson to contract

The New England Patriots recently announced the signing of Layden Robinson, their rookie fourth-round draft pick. Robinson is expected to play a role in the ongoing rebuilding process of the Patriots’ offensive line. With uncertainties at the guard position, Robinson has the opportunity to earn playing time alongside other potential options like Sidy Sow, Atonio Mafi, Michael Jordan, and Nick Leverett.

Cole Strange, another player vying for a starting role at guard, is currently sidelined with a knee injury that may keep him out for an extended period. This opens up more opportunities for Robinson to showcase his skills and potentially earn a starting spot. Robinson’s versatility allows him to play at multiple positions on the offensive line, including center, giving the Patriots more options as they plan for the future without long-time center David Andrews.

While the team sees Robinson as a valuable depth option at guard for now, his ability to adapt and thrive in different positions could make him a key player in the Patriots’ lineup. With Robinson’s signing, the Patriots have now added seven of their draft picks to the roster, with only wide receiver Ja’Lynn Polk left to finalize a deal.
