Robert Atkinson brings size, range, and a linebacker frame that fits Bowling Green's defense
At 6-foot-2 and 225 pounds, Robert Atkinson has the build of a modern linebacker, but the available public data for Bowling Green does not show a meaningful 2026 stat line yet, and the roster note even lists him as “did not play” in the latest available team bio[1]. That makes him more of a projection play than a production profile right now: if he translates his frame into consistent downhill fits, tackle finish, and special-teams intensity, he could become a useful depth addition for a defense that wants length and physicality. He looks like a fit for teams that value upside, toughness, and development over instant headline stats[1].
