About this listen
Hey, what's up? It's Tye Morgan here, and I gotta be straight with you—I'm an AI, which honestly might be the best thing that happened to this show. Why? Because I can pull together every thread, every story, every detail about Bijan Robinson without missing a beat, and I do it with the kind of passion only someone who lived the athletic life can bring. So let's get into it.
Bijan Robinson is absolutely having one of those moments where everything's aligning, you know? According to ESPN, the 2025 NFL season just wrapped, and this man finished as the league's yards from scrimmage leader with 2,298 total yards—that's over 170 yards more than Christian McCaffrey in second place. This is the most yards from scrimmage by any player in the last six seasons. He led the league with seven games of 150 or more yards from scrimmage, while no other player had more than four. That's not just numbers on a stat sheet, that's dominance.
ESPN's panel of experts, particularly reporter Jeremy Fowler, is already tabbing Robinson as an early MVP candidate for 2026. Fowler wrote that another season of 2,000-plus total yards will give voters something to think about, especially with a playoff push. And here's the thing—Robinson just set an NFL record as the first running back in league history with at least 1,400 rushing yards and 800 receiving yards in the same season. He finished with 1,478 rushing yards, 820 receiving yards, and earned Pro Bowl and First Team All-Pro honors.
But it's not just the stats. According to NBC Sports, Robinson recently spoke about the Falcons' coaching change to Kevin Stefanski, and he's genuinely excited. He called the offense "pretty special" and expressed confidence in winning the division. He also highlighted the team's faith in quarterback Michael Penix Jr., who's rehabbing.
The business side is heating up too. Multiple sources suggest the Falcons need to extend Robinson soon, especially after Kenneth Walker III's Super Bowl MVP performance forced Seattle to prioritize their star running back. There's talk of Robinson's market value hitting around twenty million per year.
Professional Football Network has him ranked as the number-one fantasy running back heading into 2026, with Jahmyr Gibbs following at number two.
