CBS Sports says it’s time for the Atlanta Falcons to find their next quarterback
The Atlanta Falcons have some decisions to make after the 2020 season comes to an end and one of those is how they’re going to deal with QB Matt Ryan.
Ryan technically won’t become a free agent until 2024, but there is a potential out in 2022 following next season if the Falcons wanted to move on from him completely, but it would cost a pretty penny in dead cap- upwards of $26 million- for that to be the route taken.
