Former Florida WR Demarcus Robinson picked a good time for his first NFL touchdown.
Moments before the end of the first half, Robinson hauled in a 14-yard touchdown pass from Kansas City Chiefs QB Alex Smith, as seen in the clip below. The Chiefs led the Tennessee Titans 21-3 entering the start of the third quarter.

The play’s ties to UF extend beyond Robinson. Smith played college football at Utah where his position coach was current Florida head coach Dan Mullen.
Robinson, a fourth-round pick by the Chiefs in 2016, currently has four catches for 57 yards in the game. He can likely expect even more involvement in the passing game with top Chiefs pass-catcher Travis Kelce out.
