The league has shifted to a flag football format while revamping the skills challenge to be more focused on having a fun and spirited competition. Thursday night’s Pro Bowl Skills Show starts at 7 p.m. ET and will feature three Falcons players participating in six events.

Micah Parsons was talking to Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson on “The Edge with Micah Parsons,” and discussed why almost left football.

Robinson joins right guard Chris Lindstrom and special teams ace KhaDarel Hodge as the Atlanta Falcons' representatives at the Pro Bowl.

The second-year running back will replace Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley, who led the NFL with 2,005 rushing yards this season. The Eagles defeated the Washington Commanders on Sunday and will face the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl.

Robinson was named to the NFC roster for the 2025 Pro Bowl Games on Monday, securing his first career Pro Bowl selection as revealed by a report by the team's senior reporter, Tori McElhaney. He will serve as a replacement for Saquon Barkley, who will not participate in the event due to the Philadelphia Eagles clinching a spot in Super Bowl LIX.

With his magical season for the Philadelphia Eagles, superstar runner Saquon Barkley is opening up new doors for running backs everywhere. This is especially the case with Barkley playing on a lucrative three-year, $37.75 million contract that is looking like a better investment for Philadelphia every single week.

As Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson celebrates his 23rd birthday today, he'll also be celebrating as a Pro Bowler for the first time. Robinson, who rushed for 1,456 yards and 14 touchdowns while adding another 431 receiving yards, was selected to replace Super Bowl-bound Saquon Barkley.

The Eagles are going to the Super Bowl and that means the NFL has to replace their Pro Bowlers on the NFC roster for this week's festivities in Orlando.

CBS Sports’ Tyler Sullivan did just that, highlighting the most valuable player from each team in 2024. Unsurprisingly, running back Bijan Robinson was listed as the Falcons’ regular-season MVP.

Robinson had a standout 2024 season, recording a career-high 1,456 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns on 304 carries.
