Falcons trade Matt Ryan to the Indianapolis Colts for 2022 3rd round pick

The Atlanta Falcons have officially signaled the end of the Matt Ryan era — one which spanned 14 years and ushered in an unprecedented level of the success the franchise had never seen before — trading the signal caller to the Indianapolis Colts. The team will get back a 2022 3rd round pick from the Colts.

The Falcons moved quickly on a Ryan trade, racing against the clock to ensure that a move was made before his roster bonus triggered on Monday at 4 p.m. eastern time. Number 2 now looks poised to close out his career in Indianapolis.
