Bijan at Camp

from nfl.com--

"1) Bijan Robinson performing as advertised. One day after a clip showing the Falcons' rookie running back shaking a defender and making a highlight-reel grab went viral, NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe got an up-close look at the eighth-overall pick of the 2023 draft.

The future is bright for Robinson, according to Wolfe:


Biggest player takeaway after watching 2 days of Falcons training camp: Bijan Robinson is going to have an incredible year.

Don’t like to overhype rookies but Bijan looks even better than advertised especially as a pass catcher. pic.twitter.com/bTf05UrFZW

OT--but still related to Horn running backs-- from NFL.com--
"Another Longhorn looks impressive in preseason. Like his former Texas teammate Bijan Robinson the evening prior, Roschon Johnson's burst through the line was something to behold and his refusal to let the first tackler take him down was inspiring. The Bears rookie demanded notice when he did the heavy lifting on a monstrous 17-play, 92-yard touchdown drive in the second quarter that ate up nine minutes, 25 seconds of game clock. He gained 32 yards on seven carries during the drive and added one catch for 11 yards. On 14- and 10-yard runs, his vision, quickness and elusiveness were apparent, and on just about every touch, his ability to fight for each yard was similarly evident. With Khalil Herbert and D'Onta Foreman, the Bears have a thunder-and-lightning combo. With Johnson, they might've found a rookie in the fourth round who has a little bit of everything and might well provide more than just backfield depth."
 
A bit further OT, but still on former Longhorns--from nfl.com-
"Patrick Mahomes has solid backups. Shane Buechele sort of upstaged the Chiefs' star quarterback by going a perfect 10-for-10 passing for 105 yards and scoring on a heady, 15-yard touchdown run to conclude a seven-play, 88-yard drive in the second quarter. The third-year QB went on to lead another long scoring drive (field goal) to end the first half, which concluded his perfect day after two series."

And now he's with the Bills.
