Seahawks Robinson Cannot Seem To Stay Out Of Trouble

Oct 19, 2014 2:10 PM

Less than a week after checking out of drug and alcohol rehabilitation, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Koren Robinson was cited from drunken and reckless driving in the affluent northwest city of Medina. "We are extremely disappointed and concerned with Koren's situation," the team said in a news release Wednesday. "We have established several programs, both league- and team-sponsored, to support and help him. We will continue to encourage him to use this support network and believe he should be held accountable for his actions." It is not known at this time whether or not the Seahawks will release Koren Robinson, however, it is clear tired of constantly giving Robinson ?another chance.? "I'm not stupid, man," Robinson said at the time. "I'm not going to be one of those people they talk about, 'Oh, he had the potential to be a great player but he let this, that and the third, so many distractions' -- that's not going to be me."
