Matt Ryan's shoulder fully recovered-- Wed Feb 13 7:00 pm -- QB back in the weight room
Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan has fully recovered from the sprained left AC shoulder joint he suffered against the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC championship game on Jan. 20. After the game, Falcons coach Mike Smith said that Ryan’s recovery was expected to be three to four weeks and that Ryan would have played had the Falcons advanced to Super Bowl XLVII. No surgery was required. “He’s started working out in the weight room,” Smith said on Wednesday. “He’s moved from the rehab part of it to working in the weight room, which is a good thing.” (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)
FF Today's Take:Ryan was well on his way to being a top five fantasy quarterback this past season before a couple multiple-interception games pushed him into the second tier of slingers. As long as he stays healthy, Ryan has all the tools and weapons at his disposal to be an elite quarterback in 2013.
