Robinson was born in Miami, Florida. He attended Coral Park High School in Miami, where he was a four-year letterman and earned all-state honors as a defensive back and wide receiver.
Robinson received an athletic scholarship to attend Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama, where he played defensive back for coach Tommy Tuberville's Auburn Tigers football team from 1999 to 2002 (under defensive coordinators John Lovett and Gene Chizik). He played in 48 games at free safety, while helping the Tigers win three consecutive Southeastern Conference (SEC) West Division championships.
