Cameron D. Robinson (born October 9, 1995) is an American football offensive lineman for the Alabama Crimson Tide.

High school career

A native of West Monroe, Louisiana, Robinson attended West Monroe High School, where he was a two-time first team 5A Louisiana All-State selection by the Louisiana Sports Writers Association. In his senior season, West Monroe finished with a 9–3 record, losing to Central in the second round of the LHSAA Class 5A state playoffs.[1] After the season, Robinson was named All-American by USA Today and Parade.

One of the most highly regarded recruits across all positions, Robinson was unanimously considered the No. 1 offensive tackle prospect of his class.[2][3] With offers from almost every program in the nation, Robinson chose Alabama over Louisiana State.[4] He graduated from high school in January to enroll at Alabama for the spring semester.[5]

College career

In his true freshman season at Alabama, Robinson started all 14 games. He was the first true freshman to start at left offensive tackle for the Crimson Tide since Andre Smith in 2006. Over a total of 861 snaps, Robinson surrendered only three quarterback sacks. He was part of an offensive line that gave up just 1.14 sacks per game, which ranked 14th nationally, while blocking for 484.5 yards of total offense per game. Robinson was named a Freshman All-American by Football Writers Association of America.[6]

Personal

On May 17, 2016, Robinson was arrested in Monroe, Louisiana on charges of possession of a controlled substance, illegal possession of a firearm and possession of a stolen gun.[7]
