"He's not got prototypical size. He's not the best athlete, and teams often target him as a weak link. But he fought through his deficiencies to carve out a pretty decent career for himself as a fourth-round pick out of Louisiana Tech. And the fact that Washington identified Robertson as a high-priority target soon after the legal tampering window opened speaks volumes."
Washington’s cornerback depth entering the 2026 season raises concerns, even as general manager Adam Peters has time and resources to add another player. Peters expresses confidence in existing options, including Trey Amos and Mike Sainristil, after releasing Marshon Lattimore and losing Jonathan Jones and Noah Igbinoghene. Washington addressed the position by signing Amik Robertson to a two-year, $15.02 million contract with a $6 million signing bonus and $9 million guaranteed. Robertson is viewed as a gamble due to limited size and questions about red-zone coverage, but he has responded to criticism with motivation. His career as a fourth-round pick from Louisiana Tech reflects resilience despite being targeted by opponents.
