The New York Giants reportedly contacted the Atlanta Falcons regarding running back Bijan Robinson ahead of the NFL trade deadline, according to a Yahoo Sports report. The inquiry comes as New York seeks increased production from the running back position in the first year under head coach Brian Daboll.
Robinson, the eighth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, has been a focal point of Atlanta's offense since entering the league. The Falcons have not publicly indicated a willingness to move the former Texas standout, who rushed for 976 yards and four touchdowns as a rookie.
The Giants' running back room has faced questions about depth and consistency, prompting the front office to explore external options before the deadline. New York's current backfield includes Eric Gray and Tyrone Tracy Jr., but the team has yet to establish a clear lead back.
Any potential deal for Robinson would likely require significant draft capital, given his age, contract status, and production. The Falcons hold leverage as a team still in playoff contention in the NFC South.
