Is This the End of the Line for Atlanta Falcons Quarterback Matt Ryan?

Matt Ryan arrived in the NFL on the back of a strong 3-year spell with Boston College. He led the Eagles football team to 3 bowl victories and a 25–7 record in 32 starts.

The Philadelphia-born athlete was selected as the 3rd overall pick in the 2008 NFL Draft. He signed for Atlanta Falcons. Ryan concluded his rookie year with an impressive 11-5 record, throwing for 3,440 yards and 16 passing TDs. He was also voted Offensive ROTY.

After winning his maiden NFL MVP title in 2016, Matt led the Falcons to Super Bowl LII. They suffered a 34-28 loss at the hands of the New England Patriots at the NRG Stadium in Texas.

He has been an ever-present asset for Atlanta over the last 13 years. But is it time for both parties involved to close this chapter?
