Falcons sign second-round pick Matthew Bergeron

The Atlanta Falcons’ entire 2023 draft class is now under contract after the team signed second-round pick Matthew Bergeron on Tuesday. The Syracuse offensive lineman played left tackle in college, but the Falcons will likely move him over to the guard position.

Atlanta traded up six spots in the second round to draft Bergeron at pick No. 38 overall. After letting Elijah Wilkinson walk in free agency, there’s a good chance Bergeron starts for the Falcons at left guard this season.

The team also selected running back Bijan Robinson, defensive end Zach Harrison, cornerback Clark Phillips III, offensive lineman Jovaughn Gwyn and safety DeMarcco Hellams.
