There’s now one player who won’t be featured with the Dallas Cowboys when the camera crew for HBO’s “Hard Knocks” arrives in training camp, and it’s cornerback Rashard Robinson. The 25-year-old was released by the team only three days before chartering their flight to Oxnard, CA, opening up a roster spot in the process. It’s unclear who they’ll add to fill the vacancy and when, but Robinson’s time with the Cowboys has officially come to an end, and in tumultuous fashion.
The veteran cornerback is set to serve a two-game suspension to begin the 2021 season for violation of the league’s PED policy, a punishment levied this offseason. Robinson joined the Cowboys in 2020 and was previously suspended during his time with the New York Jets — a four-game ban for a substance abuse violation — a penalty that preceded the Jets releasing him in 2019, only months before he was suspended a total of 10 games for an additional violation of the substance abuse policy.
