Undrafted rookie cornerback Ethan Robinson's chances at making the Miami Dolphins' 53-man roster are pretty minimal, but he has a decent shot at earning a spot on SportsCenter's "Top 10" on Saturday night.
With the Detroit Lions driving down the field in the final minutes of a preseason game, the Dolphins needed a red zone stop to preserve their 24-17 lead. That's when Robinson abruptly put the game to bed with a ridiculously athletic interception on a blitz off the edge.
Robinson, 22, spent three seasons with the Bucknell Bison before finishing his collegiate career with the Minnesota Golden Gophers. While his only season in the Big Ten wasn't enough to earn him a spot at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine or have his name called at the 2025 NFL draft, he received a contract due to his abundance of athleticism.
At the Minnesota Pro Day, Robinson recorded an outrageous 42-inch vertical jump that would've finished second among all combine participants behind only Seattle Seahawks second-round pick Nick Emmanwori.
Robinson's pretty buried on the Dolphins depth chart, but the raw ability showcased in his game-sealing interception makes a pretty strong case for developing the rookie on the practice squad.
