Free agent defensive tackle Fred Robbins arrived in St. Louis on Sunday, getting a look at Rams Park and dining with coach Steve Spagnuolo.
According to Robbins’ agent, Brian Mackler, two other teams have been involved with Robbins during free agency. But Robbins wanted to visit St. Louis first because of his past relationship with Spagnuolo, his defensive coordinator with the New York Giants during two of Robbins’ best seasons there.
“Freddie’s a 10-year veteran, a defensive captain, won a Super Bowl with (Spagnuolo),” Mackler said. “He has a lot of respect for Coach Spagnuolo; had a lot of success with Coach. Spags and Freddie have a great relationship. He just had to check out the environment and make sure it’s a fit.”
Mackler says the deal could be finalized Monday
