A'Shawn will be an unrestricted free agent after the 2022 season.

Is he worth investing beyond the 2022 season?

He's not a 3 down defensive lineman but he sure stepped up his game as a Ram in 2021.

He changed his diet and said he took his worth ethic to another level after Covid issues plagued him in 2020.

I was all smiles when A'Shawn was the lone player to give Sean McVay a Gatorade bath seconds after their Super Bowl LVI victory.

Robinson is still on the young side of 30, and I would be happy if the Rams discreetly offered him a contract extension this year.
