Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot made a surprising admission on Wednesday regarding the trade the team made Monday that sent Matt Ryan to the Colts. The 41-year-old came clean that loyalty may have been more of a factor than initially thought.
“It was more important for us to do right by Matt than try to maximize compensation,” he said, per NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. “Yes, we probably could have opened it up and talked to every team … gotten more compensation.”
