Watch: Falcons make the call to draft RB Bijan Robinson

Bijan Robinson Falcons Terry Fontenot Atlanta (Organization)

While it wasn’t a surprise to see running back Bijan Robinson drafted in the top 10, not everyone was expecting the Falcons to take the Texas star with the No. 8 overall pick.

On the field, Robinson has some of the best vision ever shown by a college running back, but what was it like for the Longhorns playmaker to receive the call from the Falcons on draft day?

Watch as general manager Terry Fontenot informs Robinson that he’s been selected by Atlanta. Robinson also speaks with head coach Arthur Smith and owner Arthur Blank in the below clip.
