Former Texas running back Bijan Robinson was selected by the Atlanta Falcons with the No. 8 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft.
Although he only has one year under his belt, it would come as little to no surprise if Robinson eventually emerges as one of the top running backs in the NFL.
In a recent interview with Complex Sports, Robinson was asked to list his top five running backs in the NFL. One fellow first-year player is highly respected by Robinson in Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs, who was selected No. 12 overall in the NFL draft last year.
Other notable names on the list include Christian McCaffrey and Derrick Henry. Here’s a look at Robinson’s top running backs in the NFL right now.
