Ramzee Robinson (born February 20, 1984 in Huntsville, Alabama) is an American football cornerback who is currently a free agent. He was drafted by the Lions with the last pick in the 2007 NFL Draft, earning the title of Mr. Irrelevant. He played high school football at S. R. Butler High School and college football at Alabama.[1]

[edit] College career

After redshirting in 2002, Robinson played four seasons with the Alabama Crimson Tide, making 50 appearances, including 36 starts. He recorded 143 tackles, including 3.5 tackles for a loss. Robinson broke up 22 pass attempts, forced 2 fumbles, and made 4 interceptions, including one for a touchdown in the 2006 season. He wore jersey number 1.

[edit] Pro career

On June 29, 2007, Robinson signed a three year contract with the Lions. However, on September 1, 2007, he was cut by the Lions and assigned to the practice squad where he wore jersey #38. He was promoted to the active roster due to injuries of other players at his position for the Lions' Week 7 game against the Buccaneers where he notched two tackles on special teams. However, the next week the Lions signed another cornerback and Robinson was again demoted to the practice squad.[2] Robinson was again activated to the 53-man roster and given a jersey for the team's Week 13 game on December 2.
