Holding a top-five pick in this year‘s quarterback-heavy draft class, the Atlanta Falcons passed on the chance to select Matt Ryan’s successor. And while rookie quarterbacks tend to generate the most headlines, the Falcons are happy to have their veteran signal-caller as the team adapts to a new coaching staff.
Ryan, 36, didn’t have his best season in 2020, but the former MVP is one of the most prolific passers in NFL history and consistently been among the league’s top 10 quarterbacks for over a decade.
To help give fans a preview of what’s in store, the Falcons mic’d up Ryan for the early portion of training camp. Check out the video below, as shared by the team’s Twitter account.
