Matt Ryan is one of the best Atlanta Falcons in history, somethign that becomes more apparent with every passing year. With the passage of time, he’s also become one of the longest-tenured players in team history, clearing a nice round number milestone today against the Raiders by playing his 200th game.
As the Falcons noted, Ryan became just the fourth player in team history to play 200 games with the Falcons. All three of the others are true franchise greats, with should-be Hall of Famers Mike Kenn and Jessie Tuggle joined by longtime and terrific center Jeff Van Note.
