Falcons running back Bijan Robinson says he feels like he\u2019s entering his physical prime, and he says offseason workouts with 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey are a big part of that.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow going on my fourth year, I want to be a leader of these guys,\u201d Robinson said at the start of the Falcons\u2019 offseason program.
\u201cI\u2019m pretty excited. How I feel, they talk about your prime years, this is the best I\u2019ve felt my whole time being here.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robinson said he and McCaffrey work hard together but also are very mindful of not over-taxing their bodies and the importance of recovery to go along with the importance of working out.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was working in California with McCaffrey. That\u2019s a cool deal. We put in work. We take care of our bodies. His regimen has been really good for me,\u201d Robinson said.<\/p>\n
Robinson\u2019s production has increased in each of his first three NFL seasons, and he said constant improvement is the goal.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery year I\u2019m just trying to be better than the last year in all aspects of my game,\u201d Robinson said.<\/p>\n
Robinson said he and new Falcons coach Kevin Stefanski have spent a lot of time going over the offense, and he said he\u2019s excited by the changes Stefanski is making, while also crediting Stefanski for keeping running backs coach Michael Pitre, the only position coach Robinson has had in the NFL, on the Falcons\u2019 staff.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m super excited. We\u2019ve been talking since he\u2019s been here, going about the plan and what to expect. I\u2019m super pumped to get out there,\u201d Robinson said. \u201cLooking at the plays and starting to study, it\u2019s going to be explosive.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Falcons running back Bijan Robinson says he feels like he\u2019s entering his physical prime, and he says offseason…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":573992,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-573991","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-nfl","9":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/573991","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=573991"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/573991\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/573992"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=573991"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=573991"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=573991"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
