Reports: Texans trading OT Cam Robinson to Browns


The Houston Texans traded veteran offensive tackle Cam Robinson to the Cleveland Browns on Monday, multiple outlets reported.

The Browns received Robinson and a seventh-round draft pick in 2027 in exchange for the Texans’ sixth-round pick in the same draft, per the reports.

Robinson, who turns 30 on Oct. 9, did not play in Houston’s 26-0 victory Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. He played a total of 59 offensive snaps in the first three games, including a start in Week 1.

A second-round pick (34th overall) by Jacksonville in 2017, Robinson played his first seven-plus seasons with the Jaguars before being traded to the Minnesota Vikings last October. He signed a one-year, $12 million deal with the Texans in free agency in March.

Robinson started the first 102 games of his career before coming off the bench in the Texans’ losses to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Jaguars in Weeks 2 and 3, respectively. He was replaced in the starting lineup at left tackle by rookie second-rounder Aireontae Ersery.

The Browns had an opening after placing tackle Dawand Jones on injured reserve with a knee injury sustained in Week 3.
