Quarterback Matt Ryan officially announced his retirement from professional football on Monday as a member of the Atlanta Falcons, the team that drafted him third overall in 2008 out of Boston College. Ryan spent 14 of his 15 NFL seasons in Atlanta, winning Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2008 and an MVP award in 2016. In his lone trip to the Super Bowl in the same season he won his MVP award, the Falcons blew a 28-3 lead at halftime to lose to the New England Patriots. He made just 12 starts for the Indianapolis Colts in 2022 and threw for 3,057 yards, 14 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. The 38-year-old four-time Pro Bowler ends his career as Atlanta's all-time leader in passing yards (59,735) and passing touchdowns (367). Ryan ranks seventh all-time in passing yards (62,792) and ninth in TD passes (381) as a future Hall of Famer.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that quarterback Jordan Love (thumb) would be a full participant in practice on Monday. Love had surgery to fix a ligament in his left (non-throwing) thumb after the first preseason game and was held out of the final two preseason contests as a result. The 26-year-old is back to a full participant in practice now, though, which should leave no doubts about his availability for the Week 1 regular-season opener on Sunday, Sept. 7, against the division-rival Detroit Lions. The former first-rounder will be looking to bounce back after regressing slightly in his fourth season in 2024 with 3,389 passing yards, 25 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in 15 starts. Love and the rest of the offense will need better injury luck to do that, but their receiving corps isn't off to a good start. Fantasy managers should consider Love to be a midrange QB2 with upside.
