The Atlanta Falcons are planning to go back to Desmond Ridder as their starting quarterback when they come off their bye in Week 12 against the New Orleans Saints, a source confirmed to ESPN on Sunday.
Ridder sat for the last two games in favor of Taylor Heinicke, but the Falcons used the bye week to reassess their quarterback situation.
It marks the latest -- and perhaps final -- move in what had been a constant question about Atlanta's quarterback situation over the past month since Ridder, who started the Falcons' first eight games this season, threw three interceptions against Washington and then lost three red-zone fumbles the following week against Tampa Bay.
