Report: Matt Ryan is the primary decision maker with the Falcons

Matt Ryan, former quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, has returned to the team in a leadership role, taking charge of the entire organization. This development, reported by Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times, indicates Ryan will be the primary decision-maker for the Falcons. Ryan's new position may complicate the team's search for a General Manager, as the role does not hold complete autonomy typical of a GM position, allowing other NFL teams to prevent their executives from transitioning to the Atlanta GM role. This situation could influence the Falcons to consider candidates not currently employed by another NFL team.
