ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Former Michigan Star quarterback Denard Robinson is no longer part of Sherrone Moore’s coaching staff, school spokesman Dave Ablauf confirmed.
Robinson was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after he was in a single-car accident at 3:05 a.m. April 15 less than two miles from the football team’s training facility, Ann Arbor police spokesman Chris Page said.
The case has been filed with the city attorney’s office and is currently pending, Page said.
Robinson declined to comment Tuesday.
Moore initially suspended the 33-year-old Robinson before recently parting ways two months after the defensive line coach Greg Scruggs was suspended and later resigned after his arrest for suspected drunk driving.
Former Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh hired Robinson as assistant director of player personnel in 2022 and Moore retained him afterward Harbaugh left to manage the Los Angeles Chargers earlier this year.
Robinson’s name is in the NCAA record book after a dynamic career as a dual-threat quarterback for the Wolverines from 2009-2012 under Rich Rodriguez and Brady Hoke.
Known as “Shoelace” because he played with his laces loose, he ran for 1,702 yards in 2010, setting a major college record for yards rushing by a quarterback. He finished with 4,495 yards rushing to set another run for a signal caller.
Robinson, from Deerfield Beach, Florida, was drafted by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the fifth round in 2013 and ran for 1,058 yards and five touchdowns over four NFL seasons as a running back.
