Falcons running back Bijan Robinson has agreed to a contract extension valued at a maximum of $75 million over three years, according to multiple reports. This deal makes Robinson the highest-paid running back in NFL history, with $51 million guaranteed and $37 million due as a signing bonus.
Robinson, the No. 8 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, had an impressive 2025 season with 2,298 total yards and 11 touchdowns, earning him first-team All-Pro honors. He has 34 total touchdowns in 51 career games, with 50 starts.
The Falcons have been active in signing core players to long-term contracts since Matt Ryan was named team president of football in January. Wide receiver Drake London, tight end Kyle Pitts, and guard Matthew Bergeron have all signed for at least three more seasons in the offseason.
The Falcons lost Tyler Allgeier in free agency to the Arizona Cardinals but added Brian Robinson, who has played for the Washington Commanders and San Francisco 49ers, and third-down back Tyler Goodson to work behind Bijan Robinson this season.
