Marcus Dwayne Roberson (born October 4, 1992) is a professional Canadian football defensive back who plays for the Ottawa Redblacks. He most recently played for the Toronto Argonauts. He played college football at Florida. He signed with the St. Louis Rams as an undrafted free agent after the 2014 NFL Draft.

Early years

As a senior, he helped lead the St. Thomas Aquinas Raiders high school football team to a 15–0 record, a Florida Class 5A state championship, and the No. 3 national ranking in the USA Today Super 25.

Rated as a four-star recruit by Rivals.com, he was ranked as the No. 2 cornerback prospect in the nation. He chose the University of Florida over offers from Auburn, Texas Tech and Southern California.

College career

Roberson accepted an athletic scholarship to attend the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida, where he played for coach Will Muschamp's Florida Gators football team from 2011 to 2013. As a freshman in 2011, he started the first ten games before suffering a season-ending injury against the South Carolina Gamecocks. He finished his freshman season with 22 tackles, an interception and a fumble recovery. In 2012, he appeared in all 13 games, starting four; he recorded 23 tackles, 18 solo, had two interceptions, 12 pass breakups (which ranked second best in the Southeastern Conference), and a forced fumble. As a junior in 2013, his season was hampered by injuries and he played in only seven games, recording 11 tackles and three pass breakups.

On January 4, 2014, he announced he would forgo his final year of college eligibility and enter the 2014 NFL Draft.
