Fantasy Impact
Ryan has the second highest quarterback rating of his career, as he is on pace for well over 4,000 passing yards and 25 touchdowns. He is more than one point better in completion percentage as compared to his career mark and is also beneath his career interception percentage while maintaining an ability to throw the ball downfield. The Falcons do have strong defenses in Carolina, Cleveland, and Arizona upcoming, but each team has had issues defending the pass this year at times and Ryan is an upside play. At this time, Ryan is a low end QB1 and an outstanding option in a two quarterback league.
