Texas running back Bijan Robinson partnered with Klutch Sports as his representation ahead of the 2023 NFL Draft. Robinson recently declared for the draft and opted out of Texas’ Alamo Bowl game against Washington.

“Welcome to the (Klutch Sport) fam Bijan Robinson ! #RB1 #NFLDraft,” Nicole Lynn wrote on Twitter.

Robinson finished his Texas career with 539 carries, 3,410 yards, 33 touchdowns, 6.3 yards per carry, 60 catches, 805 receiving yards and eight touchdown receptions.

As a member of the Class of 2020, Robinson was a five-star prospect out of Tucson (Ari.) Salpointe Catholic, according to the On3 Consensus. He was the No. 2 overall prospect in the state, the No. 2 running back prospect in the class and the No. 16 overall prospect.

Running back is not a popular choice for NFL teams in the first round. However, with how athletic and versatile Robinson is, he has a great chance of being one of the first 32 players selected on a Thursday night in April.

If Robinson does so, he will be the first first-round pick to come out of Texas since Malcolm Brown in 2015. Going back even further Vince Young was the last offensive first-rounder to wear burnt orange, dating back to the 2006 NFL Draft.No. 21 Texas (8-4) takes on No. 12 Washington (10-2) in the Alamo Bowl Dec. 29 at 9:00 p.m. ET.
