The Dallas Cowboys may have struck gold late in the 2025 NFL Draft.
While early-round selections always get the spotlight, it’s seventh-round pick Keilan Robinson who’s turning heads in OTAs and early camp workouts. The former Texas Longhorns running back has impressed coaches with his explosiveness, versatility, and work ethic, leading many to believe he could be a surprise contributor in the upcoming season.
Robinson, known for his elite speed and special teams ability, has showcased strong route-running out of the backfield and flashes of brilliance in open space. Some insiders even suggest he’s climbing the depth chart faster than expected—possibly challenging for a spot as a return specialist or change-of-pace back behind starter Tony Pollard.
Cowboys fans love a good underdog, and Robinson’s energy and determination have made him a fan favorite before even suiting up on Sundays. With the offense looking to add more versatility and big-play potential, Robinson’s timing couldn’t be better.
In a team with playoff expectations and a desire to reload, not rebuild, Robinson’s emergence could be the kind of unexpected boost that reshapes the offense—and gives the Cowboys yet another weapon.
Keep an eye on No. 32. The buzz is real.
