Alvin Kamara vs Bijan Robinson: Who Should You Start?
The numbers tell a clear story here. Bijan Robinson put up 19.5 fantasy points per game for the Atlanta Falcons in 2025, while Alvin Kamara managed 7.7 across 11 games with the New Orleans Saints. A 11.8-point weekly edge is substantial at the running back position.
That 11.8-point weekly advantage for Bijan Robinson is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Bijan Robinson is the receiving back in this matchup, turning 79 targets into 820 yards, while Alvin Kamara profiles as a more traditional rusher with 471 rushing yards and 1 touchdowns. In PPR and half-PPR formats Bijan Robinson carries the higher weekly floor. In standard leagues the gap tightens considerably.
Both share a Week 12 bye, which matters for roster construction. If you are stacking running backs this deep on your bench, plan your replacement running back early.
