Bijan Robinson had a lot of hype coming into the NFL as the eighth pick in the 2023 draft out of Texas.
The Atlanta Falcons star had an extremely productive rookie season.
Durant: “All-time legend. Flat out. I love him too… Just how much he loves football… He’s just a natural at it. He runs the football and it doesn’t even look like he’s running full speed… He’s an insane player. He’s one of the best players I’ve ever seen with my eyes. Now I need him to produce for the next 12 years, so what I said can make sense.”
Durant also revealed that he watched most of the Falcons games last season.
The Falcons finished last season with a 7-10 record and missed the NFL playoffs.
They made a major change over the offseason by signing Kirk Cousins to be their new quarterback.
The Falcons hosted the Pittsburgh Steelers for their first game of the season last Sunday.
On Monday evening, the Falcons will return to action when they visit Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles in Pennsylvania.
