Maryland Native Chop Robinson Wants to Sack Lamar Jackson, Or Be His Teammate
Penn State edge rusher Chop Robinson grew up in Maryland and would love to return home if the Ravens drafted him.
However, if another team selects Robinson, he knows which quarterback he’d most like to sack.
“I would say Lamar Jackson,” Robinson said via Pro Football Talk Live on NBC. “I’m from Maryland. Seeing Lamar all the time just running around, I want to sack Lamar Jackson because he’s the hardest quarterback to sack.”Robinson grew up in Gaithersburg and began his college career at Maryland before transferring to Penn State. Listed at 6-foot-3, 254 pounds, Robinson has always been bigger than most.
Robinson has been linked to the Ravens in several mock drafts, and Baltimore selected another Penn State outside linebacker, Odafe Oweh, in the first round in 2021. Like Oweh, Robinson didn’t have eye-popping sack totals in college (11.5 in three seasons), but he has all the tools.
The possibility of starting his NFL career in Baltimore sounds great to Robinson.
“I grew up a Ravens’ fan,” Robinson said. “I’m not too far from Baltimore. The Ravens have always been in my blood.”
Jadeveon Clowney’s Agent Tells John Harbaugh How Much He Loves Baltimore
The marriage between Jadeveon Clowney and the Ravens was a good one in 2023. Clowney finished with a career-high 9.5 sacks, while the Ravens leading the NFL with 60 sacks.
Clowney is about to become a free agent, but the door for a return to Baltimore seems open. Clowney’s agent had a brief encounter with Head Coach John Harbaugh this week in Indianapolis, where people from around the NFL convene, and made it clear how much his client loved playing for the Ravens.
“Just walking in the street and he grabbed me and I told him I loved [Clowney],” Harbaugh told our Garrett Downing. “I [asked], ‘What do you think? How’d he do this year?’ And he goes, ‘This is the first year he’s ended the season happy.’ That says so much right there. It says so much for everything, for everybody in the organization. Maybe we can get him back. We’re going to try.”
