News: 5 days agoRobinson rushed nine times for 61 yards and brought in both targets for minus-8 yards in the Falcons' 31-23 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

Spin: While the final score wouldn't suggest it, the Falcons had to abandon the run fairly early Sunday, as the Bears already had a 21-7 lead at halftime before Atlanta made things somewhat interesting with a 16-point fourth quarter. Robinson therefore finished with his lowest rush attempt and rushing yardage totals of the season, although he did manage to average an impressive 6.8 yards per carry. Robinson may have an uphill battle to get back to a truly normal workload in Week 7 as well, as a high-powered 49ers offense that also has the ability to jump out to commanding leads comes to town next Sunday.

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.
