The New Orleans Saints are expected to sign cornerback Patrick Robinson, who played for the club from 2010-2014, to a four-year contract when free agency officially opens Wednesday, reports Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
The contract is worth $20 million over the four years, with $10 million guaranteed, a source told ESPN's Dan Graziano.
Robinson, a 2010 first-round pick, was rather disappointing in his first run with the Saints, but found consistency as a slot corner with the Philadelphia Eagles last season, breaking up 18 passes and hauling in a career-high four interceptions.
The 30-year-old will most likely play a similar role in his return to New Orleans with Marshon Lattimore and Ken Crawley expected to fill the outside corner positions.
