Bijan Robinson just led the entire NFL in scrimmage yards during a wizardly campaign where he rushed for a career-high 1,478 yards, reeled in a career-high 79 passes for 820 yards, and scored a combined 11 touchdowns. It was one of the most impressive seasons in franchise history, and it's now earned him a first-team All-Pro nod. Robinson is the first Falcons first teamer since Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, and Vic Beasley all were honored back during the 2016 season. Jessie Bates, Kyle Pitts, and Chris Lindstrom were all named second-team All-Pros.
Cameron Heyward actively participated in individual practice despite ongoing discussions about a renegotiation of his contract. He expressed his desire for increased compensation after a standout performance the previous year.
"I spoke to Turp," Schottenheimer said. "He talked through a lot of things. He understands that there is a standard with how we conduct ourselves. He knows that he needs to be better, but we won't get into all of the specifics."
