The NFL's quarterback carousel took another spin Monday.
After striking out on Deshaun Watson last week, the Atlanta Falcons sent longtime quarterback Matt Ryan to the Indianapolis Colts for a 2022 third-round pick, according to Ian Rapoport, Mike Garafalo and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
This trade thrusts the Falcons into a full-blown rebuild, gives the Colts their fifth new starting quarterback in as many years, and it leaves one fewer seat for this offseason's game of musical chairs under center.
After dealing Carson Wentz to the Washington Commanders earlier this month, the Colts possessed a playoff-caliber roster save for their massive hole at quarterback.
