Falcons RB Bijan Robinson named finalist for Rookie of the Year

Bijan Robinson Falcons ATL Atlanta Falcons NFL Atlanta Detroit Lions Los Angeles

Five finalists have been selected for the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year award, including Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson, the NFL announced on Thursday afternoon.

Robinson rushed for 976 yards and four touchdowns on 214 carries, adding another 487 receiving yards and four touchdowns on 58 receptions. While the rookie wasn’t able to help the Falcons make the playoffs in 2023, his future looks bright in Atlanta after a promising first year.

The other finalists are Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs, Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud, Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta, and Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua.

The winner of the AP Rookie of the Year award will be announced at the NFL honors ceremony on February 8.
