Head Coach Arthur Smith of the Atlanta Falcons
Falcons coach Arthur Smith has not ruled out the possibility of Desmond Ridder starting at QB in the upcoming game against the Indianapolis Colts. The Falcons faced a defeat against the league’s worst team on Sunday, with Ridder’s subpar performance contributing to the loss.
Ridder threw a costly interception late in the game, and the Falcons managed to score only 7 points against a defense allowing just under 25 points per game this season. Ridder concluded the game with a 12/20 completion rate, 152 yards, 1 touchdown, and 1 interception.
On Monday, Smith informed reporters that a decision between Ridder, backup Taylor Heinicke, or another option has not been finalized for Week 16.
