After 15 seasons, four Pro Bowls and a Most Valuable Player award, former Atlanta Falcons and Indianapolis Colts quarterback Matt Ryan announced his retirement Monday, officially ending the career of one of the most durable and consistent players of his generation.

Ryan, 38, started all 234 games he played during his career, including starting every game for the Falcons at quarterback from 2010 until Oct. 27, 2019, when he missed a game against the Seattle Seahawks due to an ankle injury.

In all, Ryan missed just three games in his career in Atlanta, where he became the team's all-time leader in almost every passing category.
