    Falcons GM: Matthew Bergeron, Chris Lindstrom to be NFL's Best Guard Duo

    Among the positions NFL teams value, offensive guard is rarely placed near the top of the list. The Atlanta Falcons, if only from investment of capital, are bucking that trend. On March 13, 2023, Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot signed right guard Chris Lindstrom to a five-year, $105 million extension, making Lindstrom the highest-paid guard in league history. A month and a half later, Fontenot and the Falcons traded up six spots to No. 38 overall in the second round of the NFL Draft, selecting Syracuse offensive lineman Matthew Bergeron, who played tackle in college but transitioned to left guard as a professional.

  • Chris Lindstrom 'extremely fortunate' to have offensive line continuity going into 2024 season 

    Synchronicity is paramount to a strong offensive line, and the Falcons believe they have the continuity in that position group to sync up early. Meanwhile, Dwayne Ledford, the offensive line coach and run game coordinator, was retained in Atlanta after head coach Raheem Morris was hired in January.
