Falcons safety Jessie Bates, OL Chris Lindstrom named to Pro Bowl

The 2024 NFL Pro Bowl rosters were released on Wednesday evening and two Atlanta Falcons players were selected. Safety Jessie Bates and right guard Chris Lindstrom will represent the NFC squad in the Pro Bowl.

Bates signed a four-year, $64 million contract with Atlanta in free agency and has a career-high six interceptions through the first 16 games of the season. The play-making safety has helped spearhead the team’s defensive turnaround in 2023.

As for Lindstrom, he signed a record extension with the Falcons over the offseason and has turned in another terrific season thus far. It will be Lindstrom’s second consecutive selection and Bates’ first. Both players are just 26 years old and should be a part of this team for many years to come.
