Atlanta Falcons running back Brian Robinson (hamstring) was not with the team's RBs on Friday during individual drills, according to Daniel Flick of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Robinson did not play in the Week 7 win over the San Francisco 49ers and has not practiced this week, making it likely that he is ruled out for a second straight week for this Sunday's contest against the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If the 27-year-old is eventually ruled out on Friday, as expected, Khalil Herbert will serve as the backup to starter Bijan Robinson for a second straight week. B-Rob is a high-end fantasy football handcuff in Atlanta. Through his first six games with the team in 2026, he has 53 carries for 211 yards (4.0 yards per attempt) and four rushing touchdowns. He already has two more TDs than he did all of last year in 17 games in his lone season with the 49ers. Fantasy managers should not be counting on Robinson as a flex play in deeper leagues this weekend

Falcons RB Brian Robinson hamstring injury keeps him out of Week 8 practice; Khalil Herbert steps in, Bijan Robinson remains backup
Robinson (hamstring) wasn't spotted during the open portion of Wednesday's practice, Daniel Flick of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. If Robinson goes down as a non-participant Wednesday, it'll mark his third consecutive session in which he's done so as he deals with a hamstring injury. Until he gets back on the practice field, he seemingly is in line to continue missing game action after being inactive this past Sunday against the 49ers, when Khalil Herbert served as the No. 2 RB behind Bijan Robinson
Atlanta Falcons running back Brian Robinson (hamstring) was not seen at the portion of practice open to the media on Wednesday, according to Daniel Flick of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. It is a bad start to Week 8 preparation after Robinson was unavailable for the Week 7 win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. With B-Rob sidelined last weekend with his hamstring injury, Khalil Herbert handled 16% of the offensive snaps and had two carries for nine yards and just one reception for a 19-yard gain. Starter Bijan Robinson had 20 rushing attempts for 63 yards and caught five passes for 59 yards while playing 80% of the offensive snaps. Brian Robinson still has two more chances to get back on the practice field this week, but as of right now, he is on the wrong side of questionable to suit up this Sunday on the road against the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 27-year-old has been on the flex radar when healthy in 2026 as the backup to Bijan, handling 53 rushing attempts for 211 yards (4.0 yards per carry) and four touchdowns while catching five of his six targets for 30 yards as a receiver. He already has more rushing touchdowns this year than he did in 17 games with the 49ers in 2025
Drops: Brian Robinson Jr
The Falcons listed both of the Terrell brothers as questionable to play against the 49ers in Week 7. A.J. Terrell has been on injured reserve for the last four weeks because of a groin injury, but he returned to practice this week and will need to be activated by Saturday afternoon in order to play this week. Avieon Terrell has been limited by a back injury. The Falcons also listed wide receiver Beaux Collins (hip), linebacker Kendal Daniels (neck), defensive tackle Gervon Dexter (hamstring), defensive end Samson Ebukam (hamstring), cornerback C.J. Henderson (groin), defensive end Za’Darius Smith (neck), offensive tackle Cameron Williams (ankle), and wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus (shoulder) as questionable. Collins and Williams are also on injured reserve and would need to be activated to play. Defensive back Billy Bowman (hamstring), linebacker Divine Deablo (forearm), offensive tackle Michael Jerrell (bicep), and running back Brian Robinson (hamstring) have all been ruled out

Robinson (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday, Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com reports. After Robinson opened the week as limited Wednesday due to a hamstring injury, his downgrade to no activity one day later is cause for concern. Friday's practice and his ensuing activity level likely will determine if he's in any danger of missing Sunday's game against the 49ers. The Falcons have Khalil Herbert and Jam Miller on the practice squad in the event Robinson isn't able to handle his typical RB duties behind Bijan Robinson in Week 7
Brian Robinson's status for Week 7 is uncertain due to a hamstring injury
Robinson (hamstring) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Daniel Flick of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Robinson may have tweaked his hamstring during the Falcons' Week 6 loss to the Bears, when he recorded season lows in offensive snaps (10) and carries (two). His ability to practice in a limited capacity suggests that the injury isn't considered a serious one, and he'll have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers, who he played for in 2025. In the event that Robinson cannot play, the Falcons could turn to practice squad options like Jam Miller and Khalil Herbert to serve as depth options out of the backfield behind Bijan Robinson
Tyler Goodson is the clear RB2 in Dallas as the handcuff for Javonte Williams. He has limited stats this year but has a clearer path to relevance in Dallas than his previous stops. However, without an injury to Williams, Goodson has minimal standalone value and would likely share work with Emari Demercado if Williams were to miss time
