Brian Anthony Robiskie (born December 3, 1987) is an American former professional football player who was a wide receiver in the National Football League (NFL). He was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the second round of the 2009 NFL draft. He played college football for the Ohio State Buckeyes.

Robiskie was also a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars, Detroit Lions, Atlanta Falcons, and Tennessee Titans.

Early life

Robiskie was born in Los Angeles, California, and grew up in the Cleveland, Ohio area, where his father was a Cleveland Browns assistant coach.[1] He attended Chagrin Falls High School, where he set numerous school records as a wide receiver.[2]

College career

Robiskie played college football at Ohio State University. He saw little playing time in his freshman and sophomore season with the Buckeyes, but caught the winning touchdown pass in Ohio State's annual rivalry game with Michigan in 2006, and was named a starter his junior season. His performance in the 2007 season helped the Buckeyes advance to the 2008 BCS National Championship Game. Robiskie's receptions and yards were down in the 2008 season with new freshman quarterback Terrelle Pryor at the helm, but he was still a highly touted prospect coming into the 2009 NFL draft.
