Québécois Matthew Bergeron continues to make his mark as he enters his third NFL season.
According to Pro Football Network, the Falcons' offensive lineman currently ranks 3rd among all left guards in the league after two weeks of activity. A distinction that confirms his excellent progress and the importance he is taking on in protecting quarterback Michael Penix Jr. in Atlanta.
Since the start of the season, Bergeron's consistency has been impressive. With an 88.6 rating, he has established himself as one of the pillars of Atlanta's offensive line.
This performance comes at a pivotal moment in his career, as the Victoriaville-born colossus enters a crucial season that could lead to the signing of a new long-term contract with the organization.
- The likeable Québécois gave a generous interview to the podcast Premier et les buts before the start of the campaign:
Bergeron's task is not a simple one: protect a young quarterback like Penix Jr. while opening up gaps in the ground game with the excellent Bijan Robinson. So far, he's managed to maintain a high level of efficiency, helping the Falcons reduce opposing defensive pressure and solidify their offensive identity.
A decisive season for the Québécois' future
Pro Football Network ‘s positive assessment is a token of recognition for a player who is still young, but already seen as a key piece of the Falcons' future.
Being ranked as the NFL's 3rd best left guard at this stage of the season illustrates not only his technical skills, but also his discipline and ability to adapt to the high pace of professional football.
For Bergeron, every game becomes an audition for a contract that would confirm his place among the NFL's elite. If this momentum continues, he could quickly establish himself as one of the finest Canadiens linemen in the modern history of the league.
