Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson will play in Sunday’s game against the Saints in New Orleans despite an arrest for suspicion of driving under the influence.
Rams coach Sean McVay made the announcement Wednesday at the team’s Woodland Hills training facility.
“Talking with him, I think he does understand the severity of this and how lucky we were that nobody was injured,” McVay said.
“I do believe that he’s remorseful. We are going to let the legal process take place. The league has a process as well. He won’t be suspended,” McVay added.
When asked if Robinson would play Sunday, McVay said he would.
According to the California Highway Patrol, officers noticed a white Dodger sedan going more than 100 mph on the 101 Freeway just south of Tampa Avenue in Woodland Hills just after 5 a.m. Monday. The CHP said
After officers stopped the car, the driver identified himself as Robinson, according to a statement by the CHP.
Officers observed what they determined to be “symptoms of alcohol impairment” and arrested Robinson on suspicion of driving under the influence, and Robinson was “released to a responsible party,” according to the CHP.
Robinson, 30, has 26 receptions for 384 yards and a career-best six touchdowns this season. He caught a touchdown pass in Sunday’s 37-20 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles at SoFi Stadium.
