Robinson is entering the fourth year of his rookie deal and has proven his value to the Falcons, rushing for over 1,400 yards in his past two seasons and becoming a one-time All-Pro and two-time Pro Bowler.<\/p>\n<p>The situation is similar to that of Robinson&#8217;s 2023 batchmate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/nfl\/jahmyr-gibbs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Jahmyr Gibbs<\/a>. The three-time Pro Bowler and one-time rushing touchdowns co-leader was reported to have held out of the Detroit Lions&#8217; training camp also on Wednesday. It is also likely to be related to a new contract, although head coach Dan Campbell declined to address the issue when speaking to the media.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p><strong>ALSO READ: <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/college-football\/news-steve-sarkasian-s-wife-loreal-sarkisian-backs-former-texas-star-bijan-robinson-falcons-qb-bags-rookie-year-finalist-spot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Steve Sarkasian\u2019s wife Loreal backs former Texas star Bijan Robinson as Falcons RB bags Rookie of the Year finalist spot<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ALSO READ: <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/nfl\/news-why-nfl-fine-arthur-smith-25-000-falcons-hc-s-bijan-robinson-decision-proves-costly\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Why did NFL fine Arthur Smith $25,000?
