Falcons Sign Guard Matthew Bergeron to Contract Extension

The Atlanta Falcons have officially extended the contract of guard Matthew Bergeron, who became an immediate starter in his rookie season of 2023.

This new deal is reported to be a four-year contract worth $96 million, with $60 million guaranteed for injury. Bergeron started all 17 games in both the 2023 and 2024 seasons, and 15 games in 2025, missing two due to injury.

Initially on track for free agency or a franchise tag in 2027, Bergeron is now secured with the Falcons through 2030. He plays a crucial role in protecting the team's first-round pick from 2023, running back Bijan Robinson.
