Cowboys hire WR coach Robinson

Posted by Mike Spofford on February 11, 2011 5:49 pm

The Dallas Cowboys have hired Jimmy Robinson as their new wide receivers coach. Robinson held that same position with the Packers for the past five seasons.

Dallas will be Robinsons sixth NFL franchise in a pro coaching career that has spanned more than two decades. He also coached wide receivers for Atlanta (1990-93), Indianapolis (1994-97), the N.Y. Giants (1998-2003) and New Orleans (2004-05) before coming to Green Bay (2006-10).

Robinsons ties to Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett stem from his time with the Giants. Garrett was the teams backup quarterback during part of that time period.

While with Green Bay, Robinson saw two of his receivers make the NFCs Pro Bowl roster. Donald Driver was selected in both 2006 and 2007, and Greg Jennings was selected this year, though he didnt play in the game because the Packers advanced to the Super Bowl.

Robinson played WR for six seasons with three different teams (1976-81). He played in college at Georgia Tech, where he is a member of the schools hall of fame.

Could be. I read somewhere that GB is going to do a better job of taking care of their coaches than other teams if there is a lockout.

Probably money, new position etc. He'll have his hands full with Dez Bryant.
