Ex-Redskin Robinson: Former team started 'pointing fingers' after losses

New York Giants linebacker Keenan Robinson knows how dysfunctional his Week 3 opponents' locker room can be - because he used to be in it.

Robinson is in his first season with the Giants after spending four years as a member of the Washington Redskins. He's much happier to be in his new surroundings and as he prepares to face his former team, he recognizes "the same old story" in Washington.

The Redskins have dropped to an early 0-2 record after entering the season with high expectations. There have already reportedly been plenty of fingers pointed at quarterback Kirk Cousins, cornerback Josh Norman, and head coach Jay Gruden, which is nothing new, according to Robinson.

"When I was there, three out of four years, it was the same thing," Robinson said Tuesday, according to ESPN's Jordan Raanan. "Once they get down, they start pointing fingers. And that is true. That is what happens. And for the Redskins - I've only been on one team before I came here, and that was them - and all I saw was not the right way to handle it.

"I feel like they didn't handle it the right way when I was there. They may be handling it different now. But when I was there, they started pointing fingers, people started talking. That's how you get dissension in the locker room."

It hasn't taken Robinson long to notice the differences between his old team and his new one, nor has it taken long for him to know which he prefers.

"I like it here better. I would say that for sure," Robinson said. "Obviously, I was there four years now, I'm here now. Just so far, the kind of atmosphere, you've got a whole bunch of guys from new places and we have lots of big changes on the defensive side of the ball. We've all seemed to bond together, come together pretty well. You've got a lot of big name guys but they don't act like big name guys."
