Arthur Blank: Matt Ryan has an extraordinarily high football IQ

Matt Ryan is anticipated to return to the Atlanta Falcons as their president of football, as announced by team owner Arthur Blank during a recent press conference. This development follows the firing of head coach Raheem Morris and General Manager Terry Fontenot. The new president of football will be responsible for overseeing the hiring of replacements for these positions and will be tasked with holding them accountable while providing guidance. Blank emphasized Ryan's high emotional and intellectual intelligence in football, citing a longstanding relationship with Ryan since 2008 as a factor in considering him suitable for the role. The hiring decision is expected to be finalized soon, as the new president will lead the search for the team's next coach and general manager.
