Source: Matt Ryan was never hoping to pull double duty with CBS, Falcons

Our Summary

Matt Ryan, former NFL quarterback, reportedly has no plans to maintain his role at CBS if he becomes the president of football operations for the Atlanta Falcons. Initial reports suggested Ryan might juggle both roles, but it has since been clarified that he intends to focus solely on the Falcons if appointed. This decision highlights Ryan's commitment to being present and fully engaged with the team, contrasting with Tom Brady's dual roles with Fox and the Raiders' organization. Ryan's deep connection with Atlanta, stemming from his lengthy playing career there, may aid his transition into a front-office position, despite the lack of widespread demand for such a move.
