Falcons plan to get Bijan Robinson the ball "as much as they can"

Asked about their plan for Robinson this season, Morris said "In as simple of a form as you can possibly make it, it's 'get the ball to Bijan as much as you can in as many ideal situations that you possibly can." Morris added "For him (Robinson), he's so talented you don't want to limit the things that he can do, but you also don't want to water it down so much that he's not doing anything that he can do great."

As a rookie under former head coach Arthur Smith, Robinson was heavily utilize in the passing game, with 58 receptions on 86 targets -- well above Tyler Allgeier (18 receptions on 23 targets). In the run game, however, Robinson's utilization was much closer to Allgeier's. He handled 214 carries to Allgeier's 186 despite being more efficient on his touches (4.6 yards per carry to 3.7).

This season, it sounds like that won't be the case. Robinson said "I'm going to be more of a runner, that does everything else like not as much. It's run first, like what I did in college, and then still having that access to go to receiver and still having that access to do creative things out the backfield."
