Welcome to the NFL, Bijan Robinson!
The former Doak Walker Award winning RB wasted no time finding the end zone in his NFL debut with the Atlanta Falcons.
The Falcons swung Robinson out and gave him space to work. He then broke a pair of tackles, splitting defenders to bully his way into the end zone.

Robinson was drafted in the first round for a reason. The former Texas running back totaled over 1,500 yards in 2022 and found the end zone 21 times – 18 on the ground, 3 through the air.
Robinson has mostly worked behind Tyler Allgeier to start out Sunday’s game, but it’s also just started, too. The Falcons lead the Carolina Panthers 7-0 at the start of the 2nd quarter.
Ethan Stone is a Tennessee graduate and loves all things college football and college basketball. Firm believer in fouling while up 3.
