He’s unlikely to get a new deal before training camp, but Robinson won’t let that interfere with his preparation for the 2021 season.
Allen Robinson is unhappy with his contract as he plays the upcoming season on the franchise tag, but he won’t allow that frustration to interfere with his preparation.
Robinson showed up for mandatory minicamp after skipping two weeks of voluntary organized team activities and said Wednesday he won’t hold out from training camp despite the likelihood that he won’t have a contract extension by then.
“That’s not in my control,” Robinson said. “That is what it is. I’m comfortable with that. Obviously that’s a possibility. My main focus right now is to continue to get better.”
Robinson has been the Bears’ best receiver the last three seasons and had some of the best statistics in the NFL over the last two when he was fully healthy. In 45 games with the Bears, he has 255 catches, 3,151 yards and 17 touchdowns.
He finished a three-year, $42 million deal last season and will play for $17.9 million on the franchise tag this season. He and the Bears have until July 15 to agree to an extension, otherwise he’ll be an unrestricted free agent in March, but there doesn’t appear to be any momentum for that.
“I don’t have any updates,” Robinson said of the negotiations. “That’s out of my control.”
