News: 6 days agoRobinson rushed 19 times for 145 yards and two touchdowns and brought in one of two targets for two yards in the Falcons' 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night.

Spin: Fresh off a 194-yard, two-touchdown effort against the Packers that kicked off the Week 3 slate back on Sept. 24, a well-rested Robinson put together a very similar performance, albeit with a slight reduction in workload. Robinson set the tone just three plays into the contest, capping off the opening possession with a 59-yard touchdown run down the left side of the field. He came back just before the opening period ending with a four-yard scoring rush, and he then ceded three other red-zone opportunities in the second half to backfield mate Brian Robinson. Bijan already has 494 rushing yards and four touchdowns on the ground through his first four contests, and the switch to Michael Penix at quarterback has led to the star running back's top two efforts to date this season. Robinson next takes aim at a tough Ravens defense in a Week 5 home matchup Sunday night.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Robinson enters his fourth season having finished in the top five among running backs in carries, rushing yards, touches, yards and fantasy points in each of the past two seasons. Also a big factor as a receiver, he has ranked no lower than fifth at the position in routes, targets, receptions and receiving yards in his three pro seasons. In 2025, PFF tracked him with 86 forced missed tackles, which was easily the most among backs. The 24-year-old is in his prime and, though he has a new coach in Kevin Stefanski, his path to a massive offensive role remains clear. He's on the short list of players who should be considered with the first pick of your fantasy draft.
