The Atlanta Falcons defeated Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 16-13 on Sunday to move to 4-3 and reclaim first place in the NFC South, which had previously been held by the Buccaneers.
The fact that standout rookie running back Bijan Robinson only had one carry for three yards due to illness added to the victory’s majesty.
The Falcons, however, did not disclose the cause of his condition, and the NFL is now looking into the matter, according to Dov Kleiman.
Overall, Robinson has lived up to the expectations around him prior to this year’s draft, with 404 running yards and a very good 5.0 yards per carry, as well as 189 yards and two touchdowns in the air, so far this season.
He was the eighth overall chosen in the April draft following a stellar 2022 season at the University of Texas in which he rushed for 1,580 yards and scored 18 touchdowns.
Robinson has emerged as probably Atlanta’s most potent offensive weapon, providing the organization with real hope for the near future.
