If this offseason wasn’t already bad enough.
New Orleans Saints defensive back Patrick Robinson has called it quits after an 11-year career, per Ian Rapoport.
#Saints veteran CB Patrick Robinson informed the team that he is retiring, per agent @Agentbutler1. After 11 seasons and a Super Bowl title, the former first-rounder calls it quits.

Robinson spent eight of his 11 seasons in NOLA, one with the Philadelphia Eagles, one with the Indianapolis Colts and one with the Los Angeles (then San Diego) Chargers.
Robinson nabbed 16 career interceptions and broke up 56 passes, via PFF. He allowed a career catch rate of 59.0% when targeted.
This is yet another blow to the Saints already-thin secondary. They will likely be counting on rookie corner Paulson Adebo to step up to the plate and man the second CB spot, unless Prince Amukamara or some other veteran can do the job.
