Chris Lindstrom is recognized as one of the NFL's top players by Pro Football Focus. Initially viewed as an „overdraft“, his performance has shifted perception about the importance of the guard position. Teams now prioritize investing in interior line play due to his influence. Lindstrom contributed significantly to Atlanta Falcons' leading team rushing grade last season, with PFF rating him as an elite run-blocker. His skills manifest in powerful plays, consistently showcasing his dominance on the field with impactful performances.
Lindstrom has been so undeniably good that he's changed the perception of the position and its importance, just ask Kansas City Chiefs OL Trey Smith, the owner of the most expensive guard contract in history, a title once held by the Falcons All-Pro.
Teams are far more willing to invest in interior line play now than they were a decade ago, and Lindstrom has been a key variable to that development.
Atlanta led the NFL in team rushing grade last season (89.2), and Lindstrom was the driving force behind it.
Lindstrom puts out teaching tape every Sunday, whether it's climbing to the second level to flatten linebackers or pulling across the formation.
