The Atlanta Falcons have had a busy 24 hours, officially naming Matt Ryan the team’s new president of football on Saturday morning. While fans are excited about Ryan stepping into a front office role, his hiring overshadowed the Falcons’ four NFL All-Pro selections from the AP.
Running back Bijan Robinson was named to the All-Pro first team after his incredible 2025 season. Robinson rushed for 1,478 yards and seven touchdowns, adding 78 receptions for 820 receiving yards and another four scores. The third-year running back was the heartbeat of the Falcons offense this season.
Three of Robinson’s teammates were named to the All-Pro second team for 2025. Tight end Kyle Pitts, right guard Chris Lindstrom and safety Jessie Bates received second-team honors on Saturday.
Pitts, who’s set to become a free agent in a couple of months, finished with 88 receptions for 928 receiving yards and five touchdowns. It was Pitts’ best season since his rookie year in 2021.
Lindstrom has been a steady presence along the team’s offensive line since being drafted in the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft. The veteran guard started all 17 games this season and continued to dominate as a run blocker.
Bates also appears in all 17 games, recording 98 tackles (57 solo), three interceptions, and one pick-six. The playmaking safety has been a welcome addition to Atlanta’s secondary over the last three seasons. His presence helped in the development of rookie safety Xavier Watts.
