# Will Kevin Stefanski's run-heavy offense in Atlanta boost Bijan Robinson's fantasy value in 2026?

Yes, Kevin Stefanski's arrival is a **major boost** for Bijan Robinson's fantasy value in 2026.

Here's why:

**✅ Proven blueprint with elite RBs.** Stefanski oversaw Nick Chubb routinely seeing 25+ opportunities per game in Cleveland. As Josh & Hayden from Underdog put it: *"We've seen Nick Chubb have historic seasons under Kevin Stefanski. And Bijan Robinson even has more pass-game ability than that."* — [hear the clip](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15u5WZ61FHM&t=159s)

**✅ Workload is going up.** The biggest issue holding Bijan back — Tyler Allgeier vulturing goal-line work and red-zone touches — is gone. Allgeier left in free agency and was replaced by Brian Robinson Jr., who managed only 92 carries in 2025. From the Bijan Robinson page: "Last year Robinson was crushed by Tyler Allgeier's heavy goal-line usage... Robinson posted a pitiful 49.3% red zone rushing share despite top-3 efficiency."

**✅ System fit.** Stefanski's scheme is built around play-action and run-game integration, with quick-strike passing that pulls defenders forward and opens lanes. Early OTAs already showed Robinson connecting on play-action TDs with Tua.

**✅ The result?** Bijan is coming off a league-leading **2,298 scrimmage yards** in 2025 (already two straight top-3 RB finishes) and is now the consensus RB1/RB2 across major ranking platforms. With the coaching change, departed goal-line competition, and a run-first commitment from the new staff, he's firmly in the conversation for the **1.01 pick** in 2026 drafts.
