Brian Robinson was back at practice today after leaving early yesterday - still one of the few very clear handcuffs out there who I believe would see the large majority of the work if Bijan went down Would not catch nearly as many passes, however

Robinson Jr. is a late-round value target with RB1 upside if Bijan Robinson misses any time, and also serves as deep flex insurance during bye weeks. If you draft Bijan Robinson, make sure to draft Brian Robinson Jr. earlier than his ADP suggests, as the Bijan team will likely give you significant trade value if you snag Brian Robinson Jr. first.

Brian Robinson (not Bijan Robinson) is a backup running back with handcuff value to Bijan Robinson. While he may not match Tyler Allgeier's 8-touchdown production or 157-touch volume from last season, Matthew Berry believes Robinson is a better running back than his fantasy stats have shown, offering potential spike value in the event of an injury to Bijan.

He is only two seasons removed from posting 1,101 scrimmage yards and nine total touchdowns for the Commanders, making him a valuable late-round bench stash with significant upside.

Something to watch on Brian Robinson Take: He’s probably fine if I had to guess. Falcons don’t really have RB depth behind him so if something does happen I’d imagine a signing happens

This makes the Falcons' backfield situation more secure than Detroit's from a replacement-back perspective, though the Lions' overall offensive environment is still superior.
