Falcons’ Matt Gono highlights the payoff of Dan Quinn’s developmental mindset

The Falcons have an interesting situation at right tackle. They’ve paid veteran Ty Sambrailo to be a “starter” even if he has not lived up to that billing this preseason. They drafted Kaleb McGary to be the future at the position, but his health has kept him from leaping ahead just yet. That has unexpectedly thrust Matt Gono into the spotlight, and as I recently opined, I believe he deserves to start the season as the starter at right tackle — at least until McGary can get to 100% and push for the job.
