Nate Robinson is one of the high-profile free agents in the market to date, but no team seems to be willing to take a gamble on the former slam dunk king.

Robinson was slowed down last year by an ACL injury and has not had much success clinging on to a ballclub. In 2015, he had stints with the Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Clippers and the New Orleans Pelicans but never really had the chance to play that much for any of the ballclubs.

Last Seen in New Orleans

The closest that Robinson had for an NBA comeback was during the preseason with the Pelicans. He appeared in four preseason games and only appeared in two regular season games before being cut.

Since then, Robinsons has been waiting for offers but to no avail. With most teams in need of a point guard, it was a bit surprising to see why he was never considered for at least a trial stint.

NFL Stint on the Horizon

With no team to date, it may be time for Robinson to consider other options. He could continue to wait for basketball offers not limited to the NBA scene.

Among possible stints could be overseas though his asking price could be out of budget. Then, there is the fact that he only stands 5-foot-9, which could make it harder, considering international leagues normally prioritize taller players.

With a seemingly bleak outlook as far as his basketball career is concerned, Robinson is reportedly contemplating on trying out for the NFL.

To those who are unaware, Robinson did play football for the University of Washington back in 2002. He played 13 games as a cornerback with the Huskies back then. Check out some of the highlights from way back then below.

Robinson admits that it has been a while since he played football. However, with the number of limited options he has right now, it could be worth a shot. He details his plans in the video below.

Possibly the Second Player to Make a Big Jump from NBA to NFL

Robinson stands 5-foot-9 and weighs only 180 pounds. Could that strength-to-weight ratio help him become the second player to make a successful jump from the NBA to the NFL?

The first one to do it was Bud Grant, who was formerly with the Los Angeles Lakers, known as the Eagles back in the 1950s.

Whatever disadvantages Robinson brings in size can be offset by his speed. But can the former three-time slam dunk champ be ready for the rough and tumble plays that go on in the field?

"I haven’t played in 11 years, 12 years, but I know how to tackle, I know how to play, I know how to hit, I know how to catch … I know it all. If someone gave me a real opportunity, I know I could play."
