FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) — The Atlanta Falcons have agreed to a three-year contract extension with running back Bijan Robinson through the 2030 season.
Robinson reposted the NFL's Instagram post detailing the extension on Tuesday morning, writing “God this is for you! Blessings. Love this team and this city!”
According to Spotrac.com, the extension is worth up to $75 million, with $51 million guaranteed.
NFL Network and ESPN first reported the extension. Robinson's agent, Nicole Lynn of Klutch Sports, posted on X on Tuesday morning “Anyone have a brinks truck?” while the Falcons posted a photo of a smiling Robinson.
The deal with Robinson continued the Falcons' trend of locking up foundation players on their offense.
On Saturday, the Falcons announced signing left guard Matthew Bergeron to a four-year contract extension. The team gave new contracts to wide receiver Drake London and tight end Kyle Pitts in the offseason.
The new deal comes after Robinson spent the first week of training camp, including Monday's first day in pads, as a spectator. He attended the practices but did not participate in an apparent contract “hold-in" as he seeks a new deal.
A panel of eight AP Pro Football Writers ranked Robinson the league's top running back in a preseason poll.
Robinson led the NFL with 2,298 yards from scrimmage and scored 11 TDs last season.
Robinson has been the focus of Atlanta's productive ground game since he was the No. 8 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft. He flourished as a dual-threat back last season, finishing fourth in the league with 1,478 rushing yards while adding 820 receiving yards.
Steven Jackson in 2006 is the only other player ever with at least 1,400 rushing yards and 800 receiving yards in the same season.

GUATEMALA CITY (AP) — Residents of two villages have evacuated their homes near Guatemala’s Fuego volcano following an eruption, the country's disaster management agency says.
Video of the eruption shows clouds of gas and ash over the volcano as lava and pyroclastic flows roll down.
The eruption began Monday morning and continued throughout the day, leading to the evacuation orders for the villages on the southern side of the mountain., according to Claudinne Ogaldes, executive secretary of the Guatemalan disaster managing agency, CONRED.
During a previous eruption of the Fuego volcano in June 2018, hundreds of people were killed and a whole village was destroyed. That episode affected as many as 1.7 million people, according to authorities.
The Fuego volcano is one of the most active in Guatemala. Another eruption in June last year spurred preventive evacuations.
Authorities evacuated around 250 people from El Porvenir and the hamlet of Las Lajitas. CONRED also warned warned of ash spreading to nearby towns.
A major highway that passes close to the volcano, National Route 14, was closed. The Education Ministry suspended classes in nearby towns.
