Why is 3rd string
The Falcons drafted Robinson with the idea that he would be their starting running back for years to come, but they are going to have to earn it.
On the first training camp depth chart released by the Falcons, Robinson is the third-string player. Cordarrelle Patterson is No. 1 and Tyler Allger is No. 2.
40 time
Texas Longhorns running back Bijan had to wait until the final day of the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis to show off his skills as he and the rest of the running backs took the field for practice on Sunday.
And with all eyes on him and both the 40-yard dash, Robinson did not disappoint with an unofficial 4.47 in his first run and a 4.48 in the second. Robinson’s official 40 time was 4.46.
