Former Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson is making waves in the UFL, scoring his first touchdown for the Louisville Kings in a Thursday night victory over the Houston Gamblers. His second-quarter rushing score was a key play, helping the expansion Kings secure their first franchise win.

Robinson, a fan favorite during his time in Jacksonville, finished the game with 19 yards on seven carries and added eight receiving yards on two catches. His journey to this moment has been a testament to perseverance. After being signed and released by the Kings during March roster cuts, he was recently re-signed, making an immediate impact.

His story is one of resilience. An undrafted rookie out of Illinois State in 2020, Robinson exploded onto the NFL scene with the Jaguars, rushing for over 1,000 yards and proving to be a dual-threat weapon. A serious Achilles injury in 2021 disrupted his promising career, leading to stints with several NFL teams, including the Jets, Patriots, and Packers.

Now, in the UFL, Robinson is showcasing the talent that made him a standout rookie. For football fans and Jaguars supporters, it's a welcome sight to see "J-Rob" back in the endzone, reminding everyone of the explosive playmaking ability that defines a great running back.
