LB Chop Robinson

(How much was relief the feeling, what was the emotion you had most after the sack?) – “I was excited in the moment and then as soon as I finished, I knew I had to line back up because they were going hurry-up offense. It was the last two minutes of the game, so I had to get back into it.”

(Is there pressure where you feel some relief for a first-round edge player to get their first NFL sack? Was that something you felt at all? Just to get it out of the way?) – “No, I wouldn’t put pressure on myself about it because I know a lot of people on the outside don’t really understand what it takes. They can’t really come out here and try to do what I do, so it’s different. So I don’t really pay attention to it, I just go out there and play football.”

(Most surprising text you got congratulating you for your first NFL sack? Somebody at Penn State? Who was the most surprising person you heard from?) – “I wouldn’t say surprised, but my defensive line coach at Penn State, he was like, ‘Congratulations, but you got more work to do.’ He’s always been on me about every little thing, so he knew once I got it, he knew I was going to be excited but he was trying to keep me level-headed and just keep going.”

(What’s his name?) – “Deion Barnes.”

(So what happened with the celebration after your sack?) – “It was too quick. It was too quick to do it because I had to hurry up and get back on the line of scrimmage because the clock was still running. I hit it quick but the TV didn’t show it, but you’re going to see it again.”

(So they didn’t stop the game or anything?) – “I know right? (laughter) They should’ve.”

(What do you think this week, going against the Rams, getting pressure on QB Matthew Stafford would be big against that receiving corps that he has to throw to?) – “It’s going to be big, we just got to get after them. Main thing – stop the run, of course. We stop the run, I feel like we could just do what we did against the Bills – rush, getting to the quarterback and everything like that.”

(How are you feeling in that regard? Stopping the run, because obviously it’s an important part of your position on top of affecting the pass rush?) – “I feel good. I feel like once I stop the run, pass rush is what I love to do and that’s everything. So I earned it, I earned the right to pass rush and when that happens, I can just go out there and be free.”

(Can you speak to the mentorship that you’ve gotten from, even if LB Jaelan Phillips isn’t out there, LB Bradley Chubb not out there yet – the mentorship that they provide?) – “I watch film with (Bradley) Chubb every week on the tackles or myself. We talk basically every day about something that I could do better since I first got in here. He put me under his wing, him, ‘JP’ (Jaelan Phillips), (Terron) Armstead, they’re just guys that see something in me. I’m just listening to the guys who have been in the game for a long time, who’ve been doing it good, so I’m just learning from the best.”

(What are some of the things that you’re picking up from T Terron Armstead? I mean offensive tackle, he’s giving away secrets I guess, right?) – “Yeah, I can’t give those up. (laughter) But he’s been helping me out a lot though.”
