Bijan Robinson playing 'everywhere' in Falcons' practices
Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson said the new teammate Bijan Robinson has been playing "everywhere" for the team in minicamp practices.
Patterson heaped praise upon Robinson, the eighth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, complimenting the speed with which the rookie picked up the playbook and adding, "There is not one spot he can not play on this field." Robinson was a talented pass-catcher at the collegiate level and could be the kind of true three-down threat fantasy managers seek out in fantasy football.
Robinson led college football in forced missed tackles in his final season and averaged an elite 6.1 yards per carry while operating as Texas' lead ball carrier. He ran over 200 routes for the Longhorns that season as well, maintaining a yards per route run over 1.5 for the year. His unique dynamism could lead to him being a first round draft pick in fantasy drafts in 2023.
