In 2014, Robinson was again part of the Saints' corps of running backs. When Mark Ingram II suffered a broken hand in Week 2, Robinson's role increased. In a Week 5 overtime game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he finished the game with a well-executed 18-yard run for a touchdown that won the game 37–31.
