Rams will not suspend Demarcus Robinson after DUI arrest

Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay said Wednesday the team would not suspend Demarcus Robinson two days after the wide receiver was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.

McVay said the organization decided to "let the legal process take place" for Robinson, who was pulled over hours after the Rams' 37-20 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night.

The arresting officers said Robinson, 30, was driving more than 100 mph on a freeway in Los Angeles and saw "objective signs and symptoms of alcohol impairment."

"He understands the severity of this and how lucky we were that nobody was injured," McVay said. "I did appreciate his ability to acknowledge it to the team, while also not minimizing ... the severity of what could have been."

The Rams are scheduled to play the New Orleans Saints on the road Sunday.

"It's a bad look," Robinson said. "I don't want to bring that type of light or any type of negative energy toward the team. So things like that (are) not ... in my nature or stuff that I usually do. So I just told (McVay) I sincerely apologize to him and the team and this whole organization for even putting myself and the organization in a predicament like that."

Robinson, who is in his second season with the Rams, has 26 catches for 384 yards and a career-high six touchdowns in 2024.

Robinson is in his ninth season in the NFL and has played for the Kansas City Chiefs (2016-2021), Baltimore Ravens (2022) and the Rams. He has played in 141 games (62 starts) and has 245 receptions for 2,892 yards and 26 touchdowns in his career.
