Bijan Robinson, a rookie rushing back for the Atlanta Falcons, has a quickly expanding collection of highlight videos. If that wasn’t enough to impress you, maybe this smooth overhead perspective would.
On their X (formerly known as Twitter) website, the Falcons posted a picture of a shifty Robinson weaving among Green Bay Packers defenders during Sunday’s home Week 2 game:

Robinson was selected by the Falcons eighth overall in April, shocking everyone. Although he was widely regarded as the top RB prospect, the Falcons already had versatile weapon Cordarrelle Patterson and promising 2022 rookie Tyler Allgeier in the backfield.
But it’s obviously clear why Arthur Smith, the head coach of Atlanta, wanted Robinson so desperately. Having already registered 10 receptions for 75 yards and a touchdown, he is a dual-threat phenom who can also make significant plays as a receiver.
Robinson has rushed for 180 yards on just 29 attempts. And it seems only a matter of time until Robinson sees his workload in the backfield expand.
Atlanta handled business against the Carolina Panthers in Week 1 before edging Green Bay in Week 2 in an exciting comeback victory. When the Falcons travel to the Detroit Lions this Sunday, they’ll be going for their first 3-0 start since 2017.
