Robison, who is tied for ninth place in club history with 60.0 total sacks, ends his career having appeared in 173 career games, ranking third among all DEs in Vikings franchise history. The 11-year veteran was selected by Minnesota in the fourth round (102nd overall) of the 2007 NFL Draft. Robison missed only three contests in 11 seasons, previously holding a streak of 73 consecutive regular season games from 2012 through 2017.

Always like it when a player gets to retire eith the franchise that meant the most for their career. Sounds like he'd be going in as a Viking if he makes the Hall of Fame, though with no ring it may be a stretch.

He likely won't even be in the Vikings Ring of Honor, but he had a very good career.  He's one of those guys I'll always remember though because of his solid performance and stand-up character.  To me, he's the modern-day version of Doug Martin.

Dude looks like JJ watt.. So freaking huge man.. A mountain of a man. Why is he retiring so early though? 

He couldn't make the team last season and no one else was interested. Safe to say he probably declined and simply isn't good enough to play anymore.
