Former Falcons quarterback signs with Green Bay Packers practice squad
The Green Bay Packers are signing former Atlanta Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder to their 16-man practice squad, according to a report from NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The Packers are dealing with multiple injuries at the quarterback position and Ridder can provide some depth as they prepare for the postseason.
Ryan is among five ex-NFL players currently holding shot-calling positions in front offices. He’s one of four who had no previous front-office experience. The others are John Lynch (49ers), Chris Spielman (Lions) and Tom Brady (Raiders). Ryan’s job seems to be unique among them.
The Cowboys fired Matt Eberflus earlier this week, putting them in the market for a new defensive coordinator for the third consecutive offseason.
