The Sports Network

The Jacksonville Jaguars released wide receiver Laurent Robinson and signed linebacker Geno Hayes, the team announced on Wednesday.

Robinson, who signed a five-year deal with Jacksonville as a free agent prior to last season, was limited to just seven games in 2012 because of concussion problems. He had just 24 catches for 252 years.

The Illinois State product's best season came in 2011, when Robinson posted career-highs with 54 catches for 858 yards and 11 touchdowns as a member of the Dallas Cowboys.

Hayes appeared in 15 games with the Chicago Bears last season, tallying 16 tackles. Prior to his stint with the Bears, Hayes spent four seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2008-11.

Terms of Hayes' deal were not disclosed.
