Fresh off the heels of the Atlanta Falcons 24-14 win over the Buffalo Bills, running back, Bijan Robinson, continues to steal headlines following his career performance, finishing with 238 yards from scrimmage, rushing for 170 yards and one touchdown on 19 carries and caught six passes for 68 receiving yards, a performance that supports ‘best’ player in football claims by Atlanta Falcons head coach Raheem Morris.
“He’s talented man,” Morris said as he joined 92-9 The Game’s Carl Dukes and Mike Bell and explained why he has been high on his star running back, regardless of how he may be viewed nationally. “I wouldn’t knock people for chuckling,” Morris said in regards to how his comments about Robinson being the best player in football may have been initially received.
“I’m fortunate enough that I get a chance to see him every day, how he prepares, how he works. I get a chance to see him practice, I get a chance to see him go out there in games, I get a chance to see him push his guys every single day,” Morris continued as he shared how having the opportunity to be around Robinson on and field has given him confidence in the Falcons’ running back.
“He’s done nothing but live up to it. I couldn’t be prouder of Bijan [Robinson],” Morris said of Robinson and his performance this season.
