Bijan Robinson has met with many teams at the NFL Combine.
Running backs met with the media during Saturday’s portion of the NFL Combine. Many eyes were on Bijan Robinson as the No. 1 ranked player at his position.
Bijan is one of five Longhorns taking part in this year’s NFL Combine. He is joined by Roschon Johnson, DeMarvion Overshown, Moro Ojomo and Keondre Coburn.
Robinson has a great chance to break Texas’ long first-round draft pick drought. He has been recently mocked to teams such as the Eagles, Bills, Ravens and Cowboys. Some experts have gone as far as to compare Robinson to New York Giants all-pro running back Saquon Barkley.
As a Texas Longhorn, Robinson rushed for 1,580 yards and 18 touchdowns in 2022, earning the Doak Walker Award in the process. He ended his college career with 3,410 rushing yards and 33 touchdowns in three seasons. Robinson is a valuable pass catcher out of the backfield as he added eight touchdowns through the air at Texas.
Here is a look at everything Robinson said to the media at the combine on Saturday.

Texas running back Bijan Robinson is living his best life.
Robinson traveled out to Los Angeles to sit courtside at the Lakers vs. Nuggets matchup on Friday night. After the game, Bijan got the chance to talk with NBA superstar LeBron James.
The Doak Walker Award winner also spent time visiting with Ezekial Elliot and the Dallas Cowboys earlier this month.
Pro scouts expect Robinson to be the first running back taken off the board in the 2023 NFL Draft. ESPN’s latest mock draft has him going as high as the No. 5 overall pick.
Robinson paced Texas’ offense this season with 258 carries for 1,580 yards and 18 rushing touchdowns. He showed off his versatility by adding 19 receptions for 314 yards and two scores as a receiver. Robinson will go down as one of the best running backs to ever wear the burnt orange.
