Source-derived summary

Shaunterous "Boo" Robinson (born August 5, 1987) is a former professional American football defensive tackle. He was signed by the Philadelphia Eagles as an undrafted free agent in 2010. He played college football at Wake Forest.

Robinson was also a member of the Cleveland Browns, Buffalo Bills and Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Early life

Robinson attended Richwood High School in Monroe, Louisiana, where he was an all-state defensive lineman. He had 128 tackles as a senior with 10 sacks, four forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, 26 tackles for loss and 39 quarterback hurries, while helping to lead Richwood to the state quarterfinals in 2004.

Considered only a one-star recruit by Scout.com, Robinson was not ranked among the best defensive tackle prospects in the nation. He chose Wake Forest over offers from Arkansas State, Louisiana Tech, Tulane, UL-Monroe and UL-Lafayette.

College career

After redshirting his initial year at Wake Forest, Robinson played in all 14 games and drew one starting assignment (against Maryland) in 2006. He tied for second among defensive linemen with 35 tackles, while also recording 2.5 quarterback sacks.
