Atlanta Falcons 2023 first-round pick running back Bijan Robinson wasn't as explosive as many expected him to be during his rookie year, leaving many fantasy football team owners extremely disappointed. 

Those upset fantasy football owners took to X/Twitter to express their frustration. 

In a recent Yahoo Fantasy Sports video, Robinson shared his reactions to the "mean" tweets as he read them out loud. 

Below we'll take a look at what Robinson had to say in response to the mean tweets. 

Robinson Responds to Mean Fantasy Tweets

Tweet: "I have Bijan Robinson in fantasy so where is the support group so that I could cry with others?"

Robinson's response:
 "Yeah, I understand and I'm sorry. I cried with you. But we're all good, we're all good." 

Tweet: "Bijan Robinson you’re a bust. You get an opportunity and then you fumble the ball. Get off my fantasy team."

Robinson's response:
"Yeah, man. Hey, it's football. You know, it happens. I'm sorry. Obviously, I'm not trying to fumble."

Tweet: "Bijan Robinson is a f------ BUM, single-handily selling my fantasy playoffs."

Robinson's response:
"Bro, I'm sorry, bro. Like, next year is honestly going to be a great year. But hey, at least you stuck with me throughout the whole season. I will say that, like you were loyal to me the whole season. So, Randy, I appreciate you, bro."

2024 is Robinson's Year

Robinson surprisingly did not reach 1,000 rushing yards during his first NFL season, which had less to do with him and a lot more to do with poor coaching and quarterback play. 

Despite falling short in the backfield and disappointing fantasy team owners everywhere, Robinson still logged an impressive 976 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 214 carries. He also had an additional 487 yards with 58 receptions and four touchdowns in the air. 

The Falcons' new coaching staff under head coach Raheem Morris and offensive Zach Robinson is expected to help Robinson reach his full potential in 2024.
