Brian Robinson Jr. a Must-Have Handcuff in Dynasty Leagues?
Running back Brian Robinson Jr. went from backing up San Francisco 49ers All-Pro RB Christian McCaffrey in 2025 to backing up All-Pro RB Bijan Robinson in Atlanta after signing a one-year, $2.5 million deal with the Falcons in free agency in March. The 27-year-old former third-round selection by the Washington Commanders in 2022 out of Alabama saw a career-low workload behind CMC last year, seeing only 92 carries for 400 yards and two touchdowns on the ground and adding eight catches for 25 yards through the air through 17 regular-season games. In Atlanta, he'll have the opportunity for a much larger workload if the Falcons remain a run-heavy offensive unit under new head coach Kevin Stefanski -- backup Tyler Allgeier had 143 carries and eight touchdowns behind Bijan Robinson in 2025. B-Rob has averaged just over 4.0 yards per carry in his four-year career and is a capable all-around back as depth for the Falcons. Long-term, he doesn't have a ton of fantasy appeal in dynasty leagues, but for those who have Bijan rostered, B-Rob will be a valuable handcuff to have in 2026. He's currently ranked as the No. 58 RB at RotoBaller in dynasty/keeper formats.
