How will the Lions juggle four negotiations? Can Puka Nacua and Bijan Robinson get record deals? How might the C.J. Stroud and Brandon Aubrey situations play out?

The Falcons gave Robinson 366 touches in 2025, third in the league behind Jonathan Taylor (369) and Christian McCaffrey's league-leading 413. Tyler Allgeier is a free agent and Stefanski's teams have heavily emphasized the run. While we're not saying that Robinson is a sure bet for an increase -- it's hard to call any player with 366 touches as "due" for more work -- it does appear to at least be on the table. That would only strengthen his case to go 1.1 in most standard drafts in 2026.

The Falcons had three players nominated for 2025 NFL Honors, including Bijan Robinson, James Pearce Jr., and Xavier Watts.

The Falcons are hiring Kevin Stefanski as their new HC. He's expected to retain DC Jeff Ulbrich and bring Tommy Rees with him from Cleveland to serve as OC, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Stefanski spent the past six seasons as Browns HC, compiling a 45-56 record. He went 37-30 with two playoff appearances over the first four years, the first of two coming with QB Baker Mayfield. Stefanski was in Minnesota for 14 seasons prior to Cleveland, serving as OC in his final year there. That 2019 Vikings team was quarterbacked by Kirk Cousins, who remains signed with the Falcons as of now. QB Michael Penix is also on the roster but is working back from ACL surgery that's expected to sideline him into August. QB is the big question for Atlanta heading into 2026. But Stefanski will be armed with a sturdy offensive line and a pair of high-end skill players in RB Bijan Robinson and WR Drake London.
