Why Falcons RB Bijan Robinson deserves your vote

“He’s done even more than I even had for his expectations when it comes to fit pro, when it comes to some of the toughness that he brings to our table and the mindset that he brings to our team,” Falcons said -head coach Raheem Morris. .

Voting for the 2025 Pro Bowl Games has begun – you can throw yours here — and Robinson’s ascension as one of the best running backs in the league is worthy of recognition. Let’s take a closer look at why that is.

How Robinson fares in the competition

Robinson ranks third among all NFC players with 1,378 scrimmage yards through 13 games. He is second among NFC running backs with 401 receiving yards, tied for fifth with 66 first downs and sixth in total touchdowns with nine.

With nine games of at least 100 yards from scrimmage, Robinson is second in the NFL behind only Saquon Barkley. His 67 missed tackles are third among NFC running backs.

Robinson has averaged 11.02 miles per hour at the line of scrimmage this season, which is the fastest among running backs with at least 100 carries.

There are many games that could be recognized in this spot, but Robinson’s performance against the New Orleans Saints in Week 10 takes the cake. In that game, Robinson ran the ball 20 times for 116 yards and two touchdowns. He also caught three passes for 28 yards, bringing his total output to 144 yards.
