EXCLUSIVE RAMS' DEMARCUS ROBINSON ROBBED AT GUNPOINT IN LOS ANGELES

Rams receiver Demarcus Robinson was robbed at gunpoint in Los Angeles on Friday morning ... and cops say they were told the brazen thieves made off with over $100K worth of jewelry.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Sports ... officers responded to calls of a robbery outside a Los Angeles area hotel just after midnight.

Cops were told two men approached the 29-year-old football player, pointed firearms at him ... and demanded he hand over his valuables -- which included a pricey watch.

Our sources say Robinson obliged ... and the thieves took off. Thankfully, the wideout is said to now be doing OK despite the circumstances.

Cops say they've launched an investigation into the matter ... though, so far, no arrests have been made.

Robinson began his career with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016 and helped Patrick Mahomes win Super Bowl LIV in 2020. He joined the Rams this offseason -- but he's yet to record a catch through five games.

LA is scheduled to play Pittsburgh on Sunday at SoFi Stadium.

Dammit you snaked me by 5 seconds.

Peter Gibbons 10-21-2023 10:51 AM

I wonder if the thieves had this planned out or did they just back into it?

The real tragedy of this story is hearing that Robinson is gonna be one of those guys who is broke 2 years after he retires.

Let's all just take a step back and appreciate the fact that no one was hurt.

Dudes been in the league and made $10 million in career earnings.

Pretty impressive that the guy's just carved out a career for himself like that.

If you wear enough jewelry at any given time that it's worth could buy a small house and a good used car... you are begging to have that shit snatched off you.

Not an iota of empathy for him.

Rainbarrel 10-21-2023 01:59 PM

He just backed out of doing two women at the same time

Titty Meat 10-21-2023 02:12 PM

So as a rough guess, assume that he loses 5% to an agent and then 40% to taxes. That would make his take home about 5 million.

Let's assume that he's living the good life but not extremely extravagant. So maybe he's spending $250,000 a year over the past 8 years. As a really rough guess, that means that he's got about $3 million in the bank, without taking the time to calculate investment returns.

Losing $100,000 in jewelry is going to hurt. I wonder if it was insured.

It's his money, of course, but I sure don't understand why somebody wants to wear $100,000 in jewelry. If I was making his money, I would probably own a $300 watch and nothing else. Other than my plot to seize the crown in England, I just have no interest in that sort of thing.

Pretty sad that he would be the most productive WR on this team.

These things are usually somewhat of an inside job. Friend of a friend. Stuff like that.

Dark Horse 10-21-2023 05:33 PM

Poor guy apparently he can’t catch a break either

George Liquor 10-21-2023 06:01 PM

Did he try running backwards and away from his robber?

kepp2 10-21-2023 06:45 PM

That sucks for him. I bet he wound up in a bad part of town when he went the wrong way.
