On Monday night, Texas running back Bijan Robinson shared a photo of Lincoln Financial Field on Instagram. That sparked speculation about a potential visit with the Eagles.
According to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, the Eagles have a pre-draft visit with Robinson scheduled for this Tuesday.
Draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah recently named Philadelphia as a potential landing spot for Robinson.
Believe it or not, Eagles general manager Howie Roseman has never selected a running back in the first round. Maybe that’ll change this April.
This is pretty huge. Often the top RBs don’t take many pre-draft visits. Very interesting for the Eagles to use one of their 30 visits on him https://t.co/1jHCkVsFts

Robinson had a prolific career at Texas, rushing for 3,410 yards and 33 touchdowns. He also had 60 receptions for 805 yards from 2020-2022.
The Eagles have two picks in this year’s first round. It’s possible one of those selections is used on Robinson.
