Won't play against Carolina
Bergeron (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
ANALYSIS
Bergeron is set to miss a second consecutive game due to an ankle injury. The injury was severe enough for him to be a DNP during Week 11 prep, so a return to practice in at least a limited capacity will be his goal ahead of the Falcons' Week 12 clash against the Saints on Sunday, Nov. 23. Kyle Hinton will likely draw the start at left guard in Bergeron's absence.

Bergeron left in the third quarter of Sunday's game and was initially being checked for a head injury. He was not diagnosed with a concussion, but a neck injury will keep him off the field for the rest of the game. Kyle Hinton will serve as the Falcons' left guard for the rest of the contest.

Inks rookie deal
Bergeron signed a four-year, $8.97 million rookie contract Tuesday, Tori McElhaney of the official team's website reports.
ANALYSIS
The Falcons moved up to take Bergeron 38th overall in the 2023 NFL Draft. He played tackle for most of his career at Syracuse but could be in line to start at left guard after head coach Arthur Smith indicated that Bergeron's build translates well to guard position.

Taken by Atlanta in second round
The Falcons selected Bergeron in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 38th overall.
ANALYSIS
Bergeron (6-foot-5, 318 pounds) was a standout tackle at Syracuse and might be able to stick at that position in the NFL, but at worst he would project as a very good guard prospect otherwise. Bergeron's main issue as a tackle would be his lack of reach, as his 33 and 3/4-inch arms are more suitable on the interior, where Bergeron's heft and standout athleticism should shine more easily. Though big by guard standards, Bergeron's 30.5-inch vertical and 103-inch broad jump indicate athleticism that linemen 20 pounds lighter would envy.
