Allen Robinson is on the verge of being one and done in Los Angeles. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Rams and Steelers have agreed to the framework of a deal involving Robinson.
The Steelers will get Robinson and a seventh-round pick (No. 251) in exchange for a seventh-round pick (No. 234). Essentially, the Rams are trading Robinson in order to move up 17 spots in the draft this year.
The Steelers are bringing Robinson in for a physical on Wednesday, which is the only hold-up in this deal. If they’re OK with his medicals and surgically repaired foot, the trade is expected to be completed.
In terms of Robinson’s contract, the Rams will pay $10.25 million of his salary, with the Steelers picking up the remaining $5 million.

🏈Steelers get WR Allen Robinson and a 7th-round pick (No. 251).

Robinson signed a three-year deal worth $46.5 million last year but his tenure with the Rams is ending after just one season. He was owed $15 million guaranteed in 2023, of which the Rams already paid $5 million.
Last season, Robinson caught 33 passes for 339 yards and three touchdowns, barely making an impact in the 10 games he played before injuring his foot.
