The Atlanta Falcons are in a new era in 2024 with a new head coach, a new quarterback, and a bunch of exciting talent. The belief is if they’re going to win, it could be now. One of the bighest pieces they have? Running back Bijan Robinson.
Heading into his second season, expectations are high for the former top-10 pick. Considering his draft slot, Robinson is making quite a bit of money.
What is his net worth and salary?
Bijan Robinson’s Contract and Net Worth
While Robinson’s net worth isn’t widely known or reported, his contract details and career earnings are. He’s already made $15.47 million and will make $1.75 million in 2024. His salary will come from a $915,000 base salary and a $833,116 roster bonus.
After being taken No. 8 overall in the 2023 NFL Draft, Robinson signed a four-year, $21.96 million rookie contract. The deal is fully guaranteed and included just under $13 million in a signing bonus. The deal also includes a fifth-year option that can be picked up later in his contract. The value will be determined then.
In addition to his rookie contract, Robinson capitalized on the new Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) rules in college football. According to On3, Robinson had an NIL valuation of $1.8 million while he was at Texas.
Robinson did share, however, that there was a lot of stress that came with those brand deals and partnerships from NIL deals.
“There was a point where, like, I wasn’t talking to my mom,” said Robinson. “By the end of my sophomore year, it started to get really hard. And I just had to sit back.”
Robinson partnered with Raising Cane’s, Cameo, Lamborghini Austin, Athletic Brewing Company, and many more. In total, he had partnered with 10 different companies by the end of his junior season with Texas.
In his rookie season with the Falcons, Robinson had 214 attempts for 976 yards and four touchdowns. He also caught 58 passes for 487 yards and four more touchdowns.
