2024 Fantasy Outlook
A rookie fifth-round pick, Bertrand finds himself in a log jam behind Kaden Elliss, Troy Andersen and Nate Landman. However, if Bertrand fails to play his way into a rotational role defensively, the Notre Dame product should make an impact on special teams in Year 1. Read Past Outlooks
Won't play in regular-season finale
Bertrand (eye) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
An eye injury limited Bertrand in practice all week, and the issue is severe enough for the rookie fifth-rounder to miss the final game of the regular season. He'll end his first NFL regular season with 23 tackles (16 solo), including 1.0 sacks, over 12 games. Josh Woods will be the primary backup at inside linebacker behind starters Kaden Elliss and Nate Landman due to Bertrand's injury.

Dan Marcus focuses on IDPs worthy of a Week 6 pickup, including JD Bertrand, who played 73 percent of defensive snaps in Week 5 and logged five tackles, which should continue if Troy Andersen remains out.
Assuming Kirk Cousins continues to make good progress from last season's torn Achilles, the Falcons have all the pieces in place to reach the postseason for the first time since 2017.
