Falcons Hire Matt Ryan as President of Football

Saturday, January 10, 10:17 AM

The Atlanta Falcons are hiring former star quarterback Matt Ryan to be their new President of Football, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports. Atlanta created the position specifically for Ryan, who will now have the final say as the Falcons' decision-maker. Falcons owner Arthur Blank spoke highly of the 2016 MVP, saying, "Throughout his remarkable 14-year career in Atlanta, Matt's leadership, attention to detail, knowledge of the game, and unrelenting drive to win made him the most successful player in our franchise's history. I am confident those same qualities will be a tremendous benefit to our organization as he steps into this new role." The Falcons fired general manager Terry Fontenot and head coach Raheem Morris after finishing 8-9 in 2025, and Ryan will look to bring the franchise back to the playoffs for the first time since his playing days in 2017.

Malik Willis Facing Uphill Battle With Limited Pass-Catchers

Tuesday, March 17, 6:20 PM

New Miami Dolphins quarterback Malik Willis signed a three-year, $67.5 million contract in free agency last week to become the team's new starting signal-caller. The former third-round pick by the Tennessee Titans in 2022 out of Liberty is getting another chance at a starting role as the Dolphins rebuild from the ground up. The 26-year-old went 2-1 as a starter for the Green Bay Packers the last two seasons and threw for 976 yards, six touchdowns, and no interceptions while completing 78.7% of his passes in 11 total games. Willis' dynasty/keeper stock is up now that he's in a starting role, but his upside in South Beach is another thing entirely. The Dolphins cut All-Pro wideout Tyreek Hill (knee) and traded receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos, leaving Jalen Tolbert, Malik Washington, and Tutu Atwell as the current top-three wideouts in Miami. Willis will have one of the most dynamic running backs behind him in De'Von Achane, but with limited pass-catching options to throw to, Willis is unlikely to be much more than a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues in 2026.
