As Matt Ryan prepares for his first season as a broadcaster, the former league MVP let it be known that he’s not quite ready to shut the door completely on his playing career.
Ryan, who started 12 games for the Colts last season following a successful 14-year run with the Falcons, told The Athletic‘s Josh Kendall on Monday that he’s still staying in playing shape in case the phone rings with another NFL opportunity, even as he gets ready for his new role as a CBS analyst.
“I’m staying in shape. I think it is kind of, ‘You know my number. You know where I’m at,’” Ryan said. “If anything were to come up, you know, we’ll see. [CBS] is where my focus is at right now. But we’ll see how the season shakes out.”
