As our Pivot training camp tour continues, we've made our stop down in the A. sitting with Falcons star running back- Bijan Robinson, who right off the football field, sits with Ryan Clark, Channing Crowder, and Fred Taylor for an in depth, personal conversation about the next chapter of his young but already impactful NFL career. The Atlanta Falcons star opens up about stepping fully into his role as a leader and playmaker, entering year 3 with more confidence, focus, and responsibility than ever before. Bijan shares what it's been like to silence the doubters, thrive in a system finally tailored to his skill set, and carry the weight of high expectations with grace and hunger. Stemming from humble beginnings and rooted by his faith- Bijan is ready for what's ahead. Bijan reflects on the highs and lows of his early career and how a new sense of clarity—have changed everything. He speaks on the impact of playing under Raheem Morris, a head coach who believes in him fully and isn't afraid to build the offense around his dynamic skill set. Bijan talks about the team's transition from veteran Quarterback Kirk Cousins to Michael Penix Jr and what he's seen from him so far in arm talent, poise, and leadership—and how their chemistry could become one of the league's most dangerous duos, especially as the team looks to have Bijan expanding his offensive role running routes this season. He also talks about what it meant to have the league's standard as his position, Saquon Barkley publicly praise him as “the most naturally gifted back of this generation,” and how that respect from a peer pushed him to raise his game. Bijan details his intense offseason training with another star back, Christian McCaffrey, learning firsthand from one of the most disciplined and productive backs in the league—gaining not only physical tools but a veteran mindset. From legacy talk to work ethic, setbacks to spiritual grounding, Bijan gives one of his most candid interviews yet.
