Bijan Robinson Finally Has the Falcons' Backfield All to Himself

Friday, March 20, 6:57 AM

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson was already an undisputed high-end RB1, but his tremendous fantasy value is growing even larger following the team's offseason moves. The Falcons' new regime, led by head coach Kevin Stefanski and president of football Matt Ryan, allowed Tyler Allgeier to depart for Arizona in free agency, leaving Robinson as the only relevant name in Atlanta's backfield. That's an unfamiliar sight for Robinson, who had spent the first three years of his NFL career losing some touches to Allgeier. We can't rule out Atlanta bringing in another running back via free agency or the draft, but for now, Robinson has the backfield all to himself. That bodes well for the 24-year-old's chances to build upon an incredible 2025 in which he tallied 1,478 rushing yards, 820 receiving yards, and 11 touchdowns. If he can recoup even half of the eight touchdowns that Allgeier vultured from him, Robinson could be the favorite to finish 2026 as the overall RB1 in all fantasy formats.

Malik Nabers News

Giants "Hopeful" Malik Nabers Will be Ready for Week 1

Monday, March 30, 4:23 PM

New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen is "hopeful" that wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) will be "ready from the jump" for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season in September, according to Dan Salomone of Giants.com. "Like I always say, we'll see," Schoen said. "As long as there's not a setback or whatever it may be, optimistic Week 1, he'll be ready. But again, you just never tell with these things and how they're going to react or if there's any setbacks. But he's in a good spot right now mentally and physically." Nabers actually has a chance to be good to go for Week 1 since he suffered his torn ACL in his right knee way back in Week 4 in 2025. Fantasy managers will have a better read on the former sixth overall pick's availability for the coming season once training camp gets underway in late July. Despite coming off a major knee injury, the 22-year-old has youth on his side and should continue to have high-end WR1 upside in fantasy with young QB Jaxson Dart after he caught 127 passes for 1,475 yards and nine touchdowns in his first 19 NFL games.
