The Atlanta Falcons are in discussions with former quarterback Matt Ryan about a significant front-office role, according to FOX Sports.
Ryan, who currently works as a CBS analyst, is reportedly giving serious consideration to the offer.
He spent 14 seasons with the Falcons, winning an MVP award and leading the team to a Super Bowl appearance.
The Atlanta Falcons are trying to bring back former quarterback Matt Ryan.
But not in the way the Indianapolis Colts did with Philip Rivers.
Atlanta and Ryan, who spent 14 of his 15 NFL seasons years with the team, are having conversations about the four-time Pro Bowl selection joining the organization’s front office in a significant role, according to FOX Sports.
The report said Ryan is seriously considering the move. Ryan currently works as a part of CBS’ ‘NFL Today’ studio crew. He retired following the 2022 season, the year he spent with the Colts.
Ryan led the Falcons to the Super Bowl – a devastating loss to the New England Patriots – during the 2016 season, when he won MVP.
Atlanta’s current front-office structure is led by general manger Terry Fontenot, who has been on the job since 2021. The Falcons haven’t made the playoffs in eight seasons.
