Matt Ryan took a jab at Philip Rivers while he was discussing his role as the President of Football for the Atlanta Falcons. During his introductory press conference, the former Falcons quarterback said his new role does not involve him making a comeback.
“I’m not trying to call plays. I’m not trying to run your offense. I’m not trying to pull a Philip Rivers and come back and play,” Matt Ryan said. “I’m not doing any of those. Most importantly, I’m trying to get the right person in here in both of those positions.”
Ryan was referring to the Falcons hiring a new general manager and head coach. In Ryan’s role as the Falcons’ President of Football, he will oversee all aspects of Falcons football for the organization. Once the new general manager and head coach are hired, both will report to Ryan.
