The Rundown

Brian Robinson finished 2025 as the number 63 running back in total PPR scoring and the number 71 in per-game scoring among backs with at least six games played. That tells you almost everything about the year. Robinson landed in Atlanta and walked into a backfield where Bijan Robinson is the entire show. The role he carved out? Tiny. A change-of-pace body who suited up all 17 games but barely moved the needle — two rushing touchdowns all year, zero receiving. Deep-bench, do-not-rely-on-him profile in an offense that already had its bell cow.

Now let's dig into the numbers, because the volume story is the whole story. Robinson got 92 carries across 17 games — five and a half a game — for 400 yards at a tick over four-and-a-third per attempt. In the passing game, he was a ghost: 12 targets, 8 catches, 25 yards, a two percent target share. Compare that to Bijan in front of him — 287 carries, 1,478 yards, 79 catches on 103 targets — and you see exactly how thin the leftovers were. The per-game average was 3.7 PPR, and the consistency was brutal in a flat-line way: Robinson cleared 10 PPR exactly twice all season — back-to-back in Weeks 9 and 10 against the Patriots and Colts, both touchdown games — and finished with five points or fewer in 14 of his 17 appearances, including a zero in the Week 8 Miami blowout and a 0.9 in the Week 18 finale against the Saints. This wasn't boom-or-bust. This was floor-only. And the floor was in the basement.

The defining beat of Robinson's fantasy year: the only weeks he mattered were the two weeks he found the end zone. Week 9 at New England — 5 carries, 53 yards, a touchdown, 11.3 PPR. Week 10 at Indianapolis — 8 carries, 41 yards, another rushing score, 11.5 PPR. Outside that two-game window, touchdown or bust, there was nothing to roster. That's the verdict in two data points.

The Bottom Line

D

RB63 on the season — 17 games, 3.7 PPR/game

Robinson finished as the number 63 running back in total PPR and the number 71 in per-game scoring — a deep-roster afterthought in a backfield where Bijan Robinson absorbed 287 carries and 103 targets. The biggest weakness in the profile was passing-game usage: 12 targets and a two percent target share across 17 games left him with no PPR floor on the weeks he didn't score, and he didn't score often.
