FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder is ready to get back on the field.
The Falcons’ newly minted full-time starter reported for duty Monday, the first day of the offseason program.
“It’s like the first day of school, except when you go on the first day of school, you have the same classmates,” Ridder said Tuesday. “But half of your classmates are gone, and you have new classmates. It was fun to get in here and see new faces. See the energy around the building (with) guys just coming in here ready to work.”
