I just rewatched all of the 3rd/4th down, red zone, and 2 minute drill snaps from Atlanta's most recent games against Minnesota. Here's what happened with Bijan on each of those plays:

| 1 | 11.24 | 3rd and 15 | ATL 47 | Used as a decoy on a motion into a flat route |
| 1 | 7.17 | 3rd and 7 | MIN 34 | Pass blocking vs 4 man pass rush; ATL forced to kick FG |
| 1 | 0:08 | 3rd and 4 | MIN 36 | Flat route; ATL forced to kick FG |
| 2 | 13:22 | 3rd and 6 | ATL 42 | Lined up at outside WR on an in route |

| 4 | 0:15 | 2nd and 1 | ATL 34 | Runs checkdown route |
| 4 | 0:10 | 3rd and 1 | ATL 34 | Runs checkdown route; Picks up 1st down |
| 4 | 0:05 | 1st and 10 | ATL 40 | Pass blocking vs 3 man rush on a Hail Mary attempt; ATL does not convert |
So we've got 27 key plays. Of which we see:
- 8 (30%) where he is not on the field
- 5 (19%) of which he is pass blocking
- 4 (15%) of which he is pass blocking vs a 3 or 4 man pass rush
- 5 (19%) of which he is used as a checkdown
- 3 (11%) of which he is used as a decoy
- 3 (11%) of which he is lined up outside
- 1 (4%) of which he receives a carry or target. This carry went for a 1st down.
