The Atlanta Falcons didn’t list running back Bijan Robinson on their inactives list, but the rookie has been out for most of Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
In the first half, Robinson recorded just six total snaps with zero offensive touches. When asked about Robinson’s lack of playing time by FOX’s Kristina Pink, Falcons head coach Arthur Smith said the rookie is “just not feeling so great.”

Smith didn’t specify if it was an illness or injury keeping Robinson out of the rotation. Atlanta has leaned on Tyler Allgeier and Cordarrelle Patterson as a result of Robinson’s absence.
Check back after the game for another update from Arthur Smith. The Falcons just took a 13-10 lead over the Buccaneers as the third quarter winds down at Raymond James Stadium.
