ATLANTA — Bijan Robinson did things in the Atlanta Falcons' Monday Night Football win against the Buffalo Bills that have only been done a few times in the Super Bowl era.
His final stat line in the win: 19 carries for 170 yards, an 8.9 yards per carry average and one 81-yard touchdowns, plus six catches for 68 yards. In total, Robinson had 238 total yards from scrimmage.
"He's the best player in football," Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said postgame. "I've said it multiple times."
On Monday night, with a prime-time audience, he found his way into record books and as a league outlier. No one is doing what Robinson is doing right now, so he may be proving his head coach right.
"There are some people who are just born to be a certain athlete," Drake London said. "Like you have certain people who are born to be basketball players, such as LeBron (James). You have people who are born to be football players, like they have the perfect body shape for it. Now, (Robinson) goes out there, and it's like art. It's amazing to see."

Here are some of the craziest stats and records attached to Robinson's name so far in 2025.
— Robinson's 81-yard touchdown tied Michael Turner's 81-yard run against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2012 as the second-longest rushing touchdown in Falcons history. Both players are behind Warrick Dunn, who had a 90-yard touchdown run against the New York Giants in 2006. Robinson's touchdown was the longest run by any NFL player so far this season. It was the longest rushing touchdown in a "Monday Night Football" game since Matt Breida had an 83-yard touchdown run for the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5 of the 2019 season.
— Robinson has recorded 100-plus scrimmage yards in all five games this season, which ties William Andrews — who did so in 1983 — for the longest such streak by a Falcon to start a season in team history. He reached that mark in the first half, alone, marking the first time in his career he surpassed the 100-rushing yard mark before halftime.
— Robinson went from only notching one 50-plus yard play from scrimmage from 2023-2024 to doing so three times through five games in 2025.
— Drake London also gained more than 140 yards from scrimmage in the first half. He and Robinson joined Kevin Curtis and Brian Westbrook, who played together for the Philadelphia Eagles in 2007, as the only NFL teammates to each have 140-plus scrimmage yards in the same half. These two instances are the only times since 1991 this feat has occurred.
— At just 23 years old, Robinson is the youngest Falcon to reach 4,000 career scrimmage yards. He tied Williams Andrews' record for fewest number of games played to reach said feat, doing so in just 39 games.
— Robinson's 170 rushing yards were the most ever by a Falcon in a prime-time game. He is just the second player in NFL history to have at least 170 rushing yards and 60 receiving yards in a prime-time game. He joins former New York Giants running back Tiki Barber, who gained 203 rushing yards and 60 receiving yards on New Year's Eve in 2005, as the only players to do so.
— And finally, Robinson's 822 scrimmages yards this season are the fourth-most by any player through his first five games in the Super Bowl era. Christian McCaffrey was the last player to do so in 2019. Prior to that, it was Barber in 2004. And then before that? O.J. Simpson in the 1970s.
