The New York Giants appear to have found a gem in rookie wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson.
Robinson, a second-round pick in the 2022 NFL draft, has become an instant favorite of the Giants’ staff after an impressive spring. Many think that he will already be WR3 over Darius Slayton (with Sterling Shepard recovering from injury).
Kentucky’s Will Levis, who was Robinson’s college quarterback, concurs.
“I talked to Wan’Dale recently and he’s doing well and he’s a dog. They love him over there. I think it’s going to be a pretty seamless transition for him at the NFL and I’m pumped to see what he can do,” Levis said, via 247Sports.
The Giants, a team that has struggled to put points on the board, would benefit greatly from a strong rookie production for Robinson. If the Kentucky alum can come in and lighten the load from Daniel Jones maybe the team can turn things around and compete for a playoff spot.
However, if this change does not happen, Levis himself is a candidate to be the next Giants quarterback. Many early mock drafts have the Giants picking the Kentucky quarterback in the top 10 of the 2023 NFL draft.
Levis broke out last year as he threw for 2,826 yards and 24 touchdowns against a tough SEC schedule. If he can continue this improvement he will surely find himself selected early and on an NFL roster come 2023.
