Bijan Robinson wasn't on the field much at all on Sunday afternoon.
ATLANTA, GEORGIA - OCTOBER 15: Bijan Robinson #7 of the Atlanta Falcons warms up prior to the game against the Washington Commanders at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on October 15, 2023 in Atlanta, Georgia. The Atlanta Falcons rookie running back played in just three snaps on the team’s first three drives of their 16-13 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Florida. He wasn’t on the injury report headed into the matchup at Raymond James Stadium, either, which left fans puzzled.
Robinson, who the Falcons took with the No. 8 overall pick in the draft out of Texas earlier this year, had played in 72% of offensive snaps this season entering Sunday. He had 401 rushing yards on 80 carries, and 189 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 26 catches this season. The Falcons were tied with the Buccaneers 10-10 at halftime, and took a brief lead in the third quarter after Younghoe Koo drilled a 41-yard field goal.
Desmond Ridder’s THIRD fumble of the day… One at the one yard line and now THIS. At MINIMUM his three fumbles have cost Atlanta 17 points. Possibly 21The Buccaneers tied the game up after quarterback Baker Mayfield broke out for a 31-yard run, which set up a 36-yard field goal. Koo, however, hit a game-winning 51-yard field goal of his own as time expired to give the Falcons the three-point win.
