Matt Ryan (ankle) expected to return for Falcons after bye

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan (ankle) is expected to be ready for Week 10's game against the New Orleans Saints, per head coach Dan Quinn.

What It Means:

The Falcons are on bye this week, so it looks like Ryan will only miss one game. Matt Schaub completed 39-of-52 passes for 460 yards, 1 touchdown, and 1 interception in this past Sunday's Week 8 loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

Ryan has completed 70.9 percent of his passes for 2,170 yards (7.6 per attempt) with 15 touchdowns and 8 interceptions this season, averaging 21.3 FanDuel points. He's the QB17 in numberFire's rest-of-season projections.
