With the Philadelphia Eagles seemingly set to draft a bunch of cornerbacks, veteran presence is warranted.
Enter 29-year-old Patrick Robinson, who signed a one-year deal with the Birds on Tuesday.

The No. 32 overall selection in the 2010 NFL Draft, Robinson, started 10 games for the San Diego Chargers in 2015 and thrived, but a groin injury limited him to seven games with the Indianapolis Colts last season.
Robinson joins Jalen Mills, Ron Brooks, Dwayne Gratz and C.J. Smith as the main cornerbacks currently on the roster.
