What happened: The team president threw passes during Atlanta's training-camp workout. He retired after a career spanning 15 NFL seasons.
Why it matters: Quarterback absences have disrupted evaluation during the opening days of camp. Ryan's participation was informal; he is an executive, not a rostered option.
By the numbers: Ryan finished his playing career with more than 62,000 passing yards.
What to watch: Atlanta will monitor when its sidelined quarterbacks can resume full practice work.
