Robinson did not practice on the first day of training camp due to contract negotiations; the source reports he is seeking a new deal after Drake London and Kyle Pitts received long-term extensions. Robinson is under contract for 2026 with a fifth-year option held by the Falcons, but is looking to become the league's highest-paid running back and secure long-term financial security. The source notes that even a record-setting deal would likely represent a smaller salary cap percentage than comparable historical deals (Ezekiel Elliott, Todd Gurley, Christian McCaffrey) due to cap inflation and lower running back valuation.

Bijan Robinson did not practice on the first day of training camp, a decision The Athletic's Josh Kendall reports has to do with Bijan's desire for a new contract. Per Kendall, the Falcons and Bijan's representation have been discussing a new deal this summer, but have not come to an accord just yet. Drake London and Kyle Pitts received new long-term deals before training camp started, which likely made Bijan and his team more eager for a new deal.
