New York Jets running back James Robinson was unhappy after Sunday’s win over the Chicago Bears after being a healthy scratch, adding he’s been working his "a-- off" to have an impact on the field.
Robinson was acquired by the Jets in a trade with the Jacksonville Jaguars in October to complement rookie Zonovan Knight.

"Obviously, I didn't come here not to play," Robinson told ESPN Wednesday. "Obviously, they brought me here for a reason. I don't expect anything unless I work for it, and I've been working my a-- off. Me not playing pisses me off."
