Unlocking the Unstoppable: Meet the 2025 NFL Superstars Dominating the Game in Unexpected Ways
NFL Superlative All-Stars: Running Backs
Toughest to Bring Down: Bijan Robinson, Atlanta Falcons
Tough running helped Robinson lead the league with 2,298 scrimmage yards (yes, ahead of Christian McCaffrey’s 2,126 yards) in 2025. He averaged an NFL-best 2.41 yards after contact while also ranking third with .311 missed or broken tackles forced per touch (MBTK/TOU) among running backs with at least 125 carries.
Best at Juking/Cutting Past Defenders: Jaylen Warren, Pittsburgh Steelers
If a player jukes out an opponent, we don’t track it as contact, but it is counted as a forced missed tackle. So if an RB ranks high in MBTK/TOU but low in yards after contact, it’s likely he’s really good at making defenders miss before they’re even close enough to make contact. Warren had an NFL-best .326 MBTK/TOU while also posting a below-average 1.77 yards after contact. We also name him the most dangerous RB in the passing game.
