Bijan Robinson on pace to break NFL record for yards from scrimmage in a season

Details
14 October 2025

Falcons running back Bijan Robinson had another big game in Monday night's win over the Bills, and he's on pace to have one of the biggest seasons in NFL history.

With 170 rushing yards and 68 receiving yards on Monday, Robinson now has 484 rushing yards and 338 receiving yards this season. That total of 822 yards from scrimmage leads the NFL, even though the Falcons have only played five games and most teams have played six.

If he keeps up his current pace of 164 scrimmage yards per game, Robinson would finish the season with 2,795 yards from scrimmage this season. The current record of 2,509 yards was set by Titans running back Chris Johnson in 2009. Johnson broke the record in a 16-game season, and Robinson is actually on pace to break Johnson's record in the 16th game of this season.

Robinson is on pace to run for 1,647 yards and add 1,149 receiving yards. He's on pace to join Roger Craig in 1985, Marshall Faulk in 1999 and Christian McCaffrey in 2019 as the only players to top 1,000 yards both rushing and receiving in a season.

Bijan Robinson rushed for a career-high 170 yards, including an 81-yard touchdown, as the Atlanta Falcons upset the Buffalo Bills with a 24-14 win on Monday night.

The Bills, favourites for the Super Bowl, were the only unbeaten team in the NFL heading into last week's Sunday night football but have now lost two in a row to slip to 4-2.

Robinson, who also had 68 yards receiving, gave the Falcons a decisive two-touchdown lead at the start of the second half with his career-long touchdown run and the Bills could not mount a comeback.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen, last season's Most Valuable Player, threw for 180 yards and but also had interceptions at the end of each half.

Falcons quarterback Michael Penix threw for 250 yards - 158 of those to star receiver Drake London - and a touchdown at Mercedes-Benz Stadium to help steer the home side (3-2) to victory.

A Tyler Allgeier touchdown had put the Falcons in front before Allen found tight end Dawson Knox in the end zone.

A London touchdown and then Robinson's sensational 81-yard run put the Falcons 21-7 up, but Allen found running Ray Davis to reduce the deficit to 21-14.

Atlanta's Parker Romo kicked a 33-yard field goal with one minute 43 seconds remaining to make sure of victory.

Redemption for Moody as Bears stun Commanders

In Monday night's other game, a last-gasp 38-yard Jake Moody field goal with three seconds left gave the Chicago Bears a thrilling 25-24 victory at the Washington Commanders.

The San Francisco 49ers took Moody with a rare pick on a kicker in round three of the 2023 draft but they then cut him a poor week one performance this season.

He signed to the Bears practice squad and was activated for Monday's game after an injury to Cairo Santos.

"It feels amazing," said Moody. "To get all that support from all my team-mates after the game, it was an amazing feeling."

Two Moody field goals and a rushing touchdown from quarterback Caleb Williams put Chicago 13-0 up before Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels found Chris Moore to reduce the deficit to six points at Northwest Stadium.

Matt Gay and Moody traded field goals before Daniels threw to Luke McCaffrey and Zach Ertz for touchdowns as Washington opened up a 24-16 lead.

A 55-yard D'Andre Swift receiving touchdown gave the Bears a chance to tie the game but they missed a two-point conversion, leaving the Commanders 24-22 ahead.

But a Daniels fumble gave possession back to the Bears, who drove down the field to set up Moody's winning kick with three seconds left, leaving the Commaneders with a 3-3 record.

"That's who we are. We fight," said Williams, who threw for one touchdown and 252 yards as his team moved to 3-2.

"We're 3-2 because of our fight, because of how we face adversity and come together."

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw for two touchdowns but could not prevent his side from losing 24-14 to the Atlanta Falcons in the NFL.

Allen, last season's Most Valuable Player, threw for 180 yards but also two interceptions as the Bills were beaten for a second straight game.

Falcons quarterback Michael Penix threw for 250 yards and a touchdown at Mercedes-Benz Stadium to help steer the home side to a third victory in five games.

A Tyler Allgeier touchdown put the Falcons in front before Allen threw for Dawson Knox to go over the line.

A Drake London score and Bijan Robinson's 81-yard touchdown run put the Falcons 21-7 up, but Allen found Ray Davis to reduce the deficit to 21-14.

Atlanta's Parker Romo kicked a 33-yard field goal with one minute 43 seconds remaining to make sure of victory.

Bears stun Commanders with late field goal

A last-gasp 38-yard Jake Moody field goal on the final play gave the Chicago Bears a 25-24 victory at the Washington Commanders.

"It feels amazing," said Moody, who was making his Bears debut. "To get all that support from all my team-mates after the game, it was an amazing feeling."

Two Moody field goals and a touchdown from quarterback Caleb Williams put Chicago 13-0 up before Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels found Chris Moore to reduce the deficit to six points at Northwest Stadium.

Matt Gay and Moody traded field goals before Daniels threw to Luke McCaffrey and Zach Ertz for touchdowns as Washington opened up a 24-16 lead.

D'Andre Swift went over the line for Chicago before Moody sealed victory.

"That's who we are. We fight," said Williams, who threw for one touchdown and 252 yards.

"We're 3-2 because of our fight, because of how we face adversity and come together."
