Former Green Bay Packers and St.Louis/Phoenix Cardinals offensive tackle Tootie Robbins, a 12-year NFL veteran, has died at the age of 62.
Former Green Bay Packers and St.Louis/Phoenix Cardinals offensive tackle Tootie Robbins, a 12-year NFL veteran who was coach Mike Holmgren's starting right tackle for two seasons in Green Bay, has died at the age of 62.
“My heart is heavy and saddened this evening as I found out James “Tootie” Robbins passed away today,” Sharpe wrote. “Tootie and I broke into the NFL together as draft picks with the St. Louis Cardinals in 1982. I send my heart felt condolences and prayers for wife Shaneeta and their son. Rest easy big fella until we see each other again...”
The Packers’ offensive line was a mess and after Holmgren added former Cardinals offensive line coach Tom Lovat to his first staff in 1992, Robbins became an anchor at right tackle. Nearing the end of his career at the time, Robbins added stability and leadership the Packers were sorely lacking.
