Matt Ryan passes Warren Moon and moves into 10th on the all-time passing yards list

Even in a down season, Matt Ryan continues to make history and add to the legacy of what has become a very impressive career. In today’s game, he has officially moved into the top 10 on the all-time NFL passing yards list, with over 49,325 career yards.

He accomplished the feat on his touchdown toss to Calvin Ridley, which put the Falcons up 26-0. He needed 254 yards to surpass Moon and now has 255 on the day with plenty of time left.

Last season, Ryan made history by surpassing Peyton Manning to become the all-time passing yards leader in a player’s first 11 seasons.
