Robinson was unable to reach his prior levels of play post-injury, and in October 2022 was traded to the New York Jets. His workload decreased a bit in Year 2, but he still gained 989 yards with eight scores before a season-ending achilles tear. Nonetheless, he burst onto the scene right away and finished his rookie season with 1,414 scrimmage yards and 10 touchdowns. Nonetheless, he did not hear his name called in the draft and joined the Jacksonville Jaguars as a free agent. A physical workhorse-type running back, he was a first-team all-conference selection in the MVFC in each of his three seasons as a starter, and named consensus first-team All-American as a senior. A three-year starter, he finished his career with the Redbirds ranked second in school history in rushing yards (4,444), rushing touchdowns (44), total touchdowns (46), and all-purpose yards (5,218).
