Former Dolphin Robbie Chosen Opens up on Name Change
Former Dolphin Robbie Chosen Opens up on Name Change originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Former Miami Dolphins receiver Robbie Chosen has undergone numerous name changes over the past few years. Known as Robby Anderson early in his NFL career, he later changed his first name to be spelled "Robbie" and then changed it to "Chosen." Advertisement Now, the former NFL receiver goes by Robbie Chosen, and he recently opened up on why he decided to change his name. Chosen spent nine years in the NFL. His first four years were spent with the New York Jets, followed by two and a half years with the Carolina Panthers. He spent time with the Arizona Cardinals in 2022 before joining the Dolphins for the last two years. The Dolphins released Chosen in 2024. When Chosen arrived in Miami, he didn't talk much about his name change, except that it was a positive change and spiritually driven. But at his youth football camp in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on Sunday, the former Dolphin opened up about the reasons behind his name change. Advertisement 'God led me to that,' Chosen said (h/t SunSentinel). 'I wanted to re-identify myself, and just the redirection of my life, just understanding how valuable decisions are and just wanting to represent God. Just create a new legacy for my children, for them, just what I live for now.' Chosen, known as Anderson at the time, faced legal issues with multiple arrests and on-field issues early in his NFL career, likely what he was alluding to with the redirection of his life. Now, Chosen is focused on redefining his future. He held his youth camp at Joseph C. Carter Park this past weekend, where he led kids through football drills and played quarterback as the campers enjoyed 1-on-1 drills. Miami Dolphins wide receiver Robbie Chosen (3) warms up before a game against the Atlanta Falcons at Hard Rock Ray Seebeck-Imagn Images 'This is where I come from. I just want to give them an opportunity to come out here, have fun and know that it's possible,' Chosen said. 'I always try to be that person that would've helped me and try to be that person I would've looked up to.' Advertisement As for Chosen's career in the NFL, he's taken advantage of opportunities in media, joining NFL Network's "Good Morning Football" and CBS Sports HQ as a guest, but he still intends to play somewhere in 2025. 'I have teams that are interested in me that I'm interested in. I'm just staying patient and just preparing,' Chosen said. 'I know I'm in the best shape of my life. I'm just preparing to have the best season of my life, and I'm fully confident, staying patient, staying ready.' We'll see if Chosen finds a team for the 2025 season, but it seems he's found peace within himself this offseason, affecting his community in new ways.
