Bijan Robinson ran for a touchdown as the Atlanta Falcons faced the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football.
Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson recorded a rushing touchdown during Thursday night's game against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. The scoring play served as a response for Atlanta, who entered the contest following early-season losses to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Carolina Panthers.
Quarterback Michael Penix Jr. earned the start for the Falcons, marking his return to the lineup after recovering from a torn left ACL sustained last season. While Tua Tagovailoa was also available to play despite a recent oblique injury, Atlanta opted for Penix to lead the offense.
Green Bay entered the matchup following a comeback victory against the New York Jets, which moved their record to 1-1 after a Week 1 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The game served as the 2026 home debut for Packers quarterback Jordan Love. The Green Bay defense remains without edge rusher Micah Parsons, who continues to recover from a torn ACL suffered in December.
