INDIANAPOLIS -- The Colts do not look at new starting quarterback Matt Ryan as just a one-year Band-Aid at the position, owner Jim Irsay said Saturday.
The addition of Ryan from Atlanta in March initially could have been compared to when the Colts signed veteran Philip Rivers for a year in 2020 until they hopefully found their long-term answer at the position. But if Irsay has his way, Ryan will be their starter for the next few seasons.
"Matt is different than Philip, this is definitely different than that," Irsay said.
