Falcons' new president of football says he’ll be there if Atlanta's injured QB needs him and he looks to finish what he started as a player and help bring the Falcons a title.

The Atlanta Falcons introduced Matt Ryan as their new president of football on Tuesday morning. Ryan spent 14 years as the team's starting quarterback (2008-2021) and will now serve as a key front office member and right-hand man to Falcons owner Arthur Blank.

The Atlanta Falcons fired head coach Raheem Morris after a second consecutive 8-9 season and are ramping up the search for their 20th head coach in franchise history. Although there are multiple names on the table,

Ryan is among five ex-NFL players currently holding shot-calling positions in front offices. He’s one of four who had no previous front-office experience. The others are John Lynch (49ers), Chris Spielman (Lions) and Tom Brady (Raiders). Ryan’s job seems to be unique among them.
