The 2025 season might be over for one former Florida State standout before the campaign has even truly begun.

After signing with the Kansas City Chiefs this offseason, former Seminole and NFL veteran Janarius Robinson was hoping to help take the team back to championship heights. Instead, he'll miss significant time after being injured in the Chiefs' preseason opener.

Janarius Robinson Suffers Fractured Foot

Earlier this week, Kansas City announced it was placing Robinson on Injured Reserve due to a fractured foot. The injury occurred during the Chiefs' 20-17 preseason opening loss to the Arizona Cardinals last Saturday.

Prior to going down, Robinson totaled one tackle, one tackle for loss, and one sack. He was on the fringe to make the roster and this setback could lead to him searching for a new opportunity once he's healthy again.

This Isn't The First Injury Robinson Has Dealt With

Since beginning his professional career, Robinson has unfortunately dealt with plenty of injuries. He suffered a torn ACL before his rookie season began with the Minnesota Vikings in 2021. The following season, Robinson was placed on IR due to a season-ending ankle injury about a month after the Philadelphia Eagles signed him off Minnesota's practice squad.

It's been a disappointing run for Robinson after a relatively healthy college career. He played in 39 consecutive games at Florida State from 2017-20, starting in 28 of those contests.

Robinson spent the past two seasons bouncing between the Las Vegas Raiders' active roster and practice squad. He appeared in 16 games with the franchise, totaling 13 tackles, one tackle for loss, 1.5 sacks, and one pass deflection.
