Meet Zac Robinson: Three things to know about the Rams' assistant quarterbacks coach

Quarterback Jared Goff will operate under a new quarterbacks coach in former tight ends coach/pass game coordinator Shane Waldron for the fourth-straight season since he was drafted No. 1 overall in the 2016 NFL Draft.

Joining Waldron in leading the quarterbacks room in 2019 will be first-year NFL coach Zac Robinson.

Here are three things to know about Robinson:

1. Experience with Superstar Receivers

Goff will have his pick of two 1,000-yard receivers to target in 2019 in wide receivers Brandin Cooks and Robert Woods, who each reached the mark in 2018.

Robinson's days as a quarterback at Oklahoma State also featured a 1,000-yard sophomore receiver, in future All-Pro Dez Bryant. Robinson threw 25 touchdowns as a junior at OSU — 19 of which landed in the hands of Bryant.

Much like defensive tackle Aaron Donald, who is getting a position coach in Eric Henderson with experience working with superstars, Goff is getting a quarterbacks coach with in-game experience targeting a top-tier receiver.

2. Former Analyst

Robinson was most recently a member of the football media, serving as an analysts for Pro Football Focus, after spending time largely as a practice squad quarterback for the Patriots, Lions, Seahawks, and Bengals.

As a sophomore at Oklahoma State, Robinson recorded 847 yards rushing and 2,824 yards passing and combined for 32 touchdowns and set a school record with 3,671 total offensive yards. The only other player D1 player to rush for at least 800 yards and pass for 2,800 yards was Heisman Trophy winner and current Binghamton Rumble Ponies outfielder Tim Tebow.
