Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson secured his first major career milestone during Monday Night Football against the Las Vegas Raiders. He secured his
first 1,000+ rushing yard season. The second-year Texas football star came into the NFL as a highly touted pick. He was someone who posed a dynamic threat on the ground and through the passing game. Robinson received comparisons to even Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey.
Fans went bonkers about his season and mostly gave him praise. One fan said “Congrats to Bijan Robinson on his first 1K+ yard season.. An amazing milestone for an incredible talent. The future is bright!” Another said “He needs to be on a better team. The Falcons are wasting him.” Lastly, one fan said, “Guy has a bright future but Falcons will still be mid.”
Luckily,
Robinson has embraced the McCaffrey role for the Falcons and has proved that he can be productive. After an underwhelming rookie season, there’s been no sophomore slump. So far, he’s rushing for 1,102 yards, and eight touchdowns, which is double his touchdown total from his rookie campaign. Also, he’s been just as effective in the passing game. Robinson has 54 receptions for 411 yards and a touchdown.
