Matt Ryan: Benched| Contract| Superbowl
Benched:
Falcons QB Matt Ryan completed 19-of-28 passes for 153 yards and two interceptions in Thursday night’s Week 11 loss to the Patriots. Fantasy Impact: It was another awful outing for Ryan, who was benched for the second straight game.
It was another awful outing for Ryan, who was benched for the second straight game. Ryan doesn’t have a lot to work with and the offense is more or less one-dimensional. While he will get back on track, it is a matter of when. Ryan is a fade in fantasy at the moment.

Superbowl:
Ryan, of course, knew the reference. The Falcons were up on New England — and their quarterback, Tom Brady — 28-3 during Super Bowl LI, before ultimately losing 34-28.
The 36-year-old Ryan — who said Wednesday he would be open to playing as long as Brady has — is 0-5 lifetime against Brady, between his time with New England and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
