NFL: AP source: Falcons agree to terms with CB Robinson


By CHARLES ODUM
AP Sports Writer

ATLANTA — A person familiar with the negotiations said the Atlanta Falcons agreed to terms on a six-year deal Friday with free-agent cornerback Dunta Robinson, who had 13 interceptions in the last six seasons with Houston.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because no contract had been signed. Financial terms of the agreement were not immediately available.
Robinson is from Athens, Ga., about an hour from Atlanta. He visited the team Friday.
Robinson was the 10th overall draft pick in 2004. He had six interceptions as a rookie.
The Falcons ranked 28th in the league in pass defense last season. The team re-signed cornerback Brian Williams on Thursday.
