The Green Bay Packers released wide receiver Koren Robinson on Friday.
Robinson, who signed as a free-agent in September 2006, served a year-long suspension for violating the NFL's substance abuse policy. He was reinstated by the league in October and appeared in nine games for the Packers recording 21 receptions for 241 yards and one touchdown.
The ninth overall selection by the Seahawks in the 2001 NFL Draft, Robinson looked like he was on his way to stardom with Seattle before off- the-field problems derailed his career.
For his seven-year career, Robinson has 263 receptions for 3,844 yards and 14 touchdowns in 84 games with Seattle, Minnesota and Green Bay.
