Rams trading receiver Robinson

The Rams were finalizing a deal to send receiver Allen Robinson to the Pittsburgh Steelers, people aware of the situation said Tuesday.

Robinson is scheduled to have a physical with the Steelers on Wednesday. If the Steelers clear him, the trade would be completed, said the people who requested anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

Robinson was due to earn $10 million and carry a salary-cap number of just more than $18 million, according to overthecap.com.

According to reports, the teams would swap seventhround draft picks, and the Steelers would pay only $5 million of Robinson’s remaining compensation.

The trade qualifies as an acknowledgment by the Rams that they miscalculated when they signed Robinson in March 2022 and then traded receiver Robert Woods to Tennessee.

Robinson, 29, caught 33 passes for 339 yards and three touchdowns before a foot injury forced him to sit out the last seven games.

Robinson, a three-time 1,000-yard receiver in his previous eight NFL seasons, was handicapped in part by the Rams’ decision to not have quarterback Matthew Stafford throw passes during offseason workouts or much of training camp because of tendinitis.

Robinson is the latest high-priced starter to be released or traded since the Rams finished 5-12, the worst season-after performance by a Super Bowl champion in NFL history.

The Rams released linebacker Bobby Wagner and edge rusher Leonard Floyd and traded star cornerback Jalen Ramsey.

Robinson’s departure would leave the Rams with receivers Cooper Kupp, Van Jefferson, Ben Skowronek and Tutu Atwell.
