Falcons LT Jake Matthews: ‘There’s definitely a chip on our shoulders’

Veteran left tackle Jake Matthews says the Falcons have a chip on their shoulder going into the 2022 NFL season.

The Atlanta Falcons began their voluntary offseason program on Tuesday and the majority of players showed up, including veteran offensive tackle Jake Matthews.

Following the Matt Ryan trade, Matthews is now the team’s longest-tenured player, and the only offensive player still on the team since the Falcons’ last playoff appearance.

Matthews discussed Ryan’s departure and a number of other topics after Tuesday’s workout.
