Atlanta Falcons Trade Matt Ryan To Indianapolis Colts!

Could this mean that Baker Mayfield should look elsewhere since the Indianapolis Colts just landed one of the best quarterback in Falcons franchise history, Matt Ryan???

CelebnSports247.com reports, after 14 seasons and becoming the best quarterback in franchise history, Matt Ryan is moving on from the Atlanta Falcons.

The Falcons moved quickly to add Ryan’s possible successor, agreeing to a two-year contract with quarterback Marcus Mariota, who is familiar with coach Arthur Smith’s offensive scheme from their time together with the Tennessee Titans. Mariota’s deal is worth two-year, $18.75 million, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Falcons’ QB Matt Ryan, who was in a walking boot after today’s loss to the Rams, is scheduled to undergo an MRI on his ankle Monday, but the team does not believe the injury is serious, per source.

Colts general manager Chris Ballard said in a statement:

We’re thrilled we had a chance to acquire a proven veteran in Matt Ryan who brings tremendous experience to our team. Matt’s leadership and skillset will complement our roster’s growth and success. He’s long been a great ambassador for the NFL and the Atlanta Falcons, and we’re excited he can continue his accomplished career in Indianapolis.
