An injured shoulder and ankle are Matt Ryan’s current problems. The Colts’ acquisition of Matt Ryan in the offseason hasn’t paid off, and the team is probably searching for an offensive spark after struggling against the Tennessee Titans in Week 7.
Last season, Ryan was supposed to be the antithesis of Carson Wentz’s inconsistent play, but he actually performed statistically worse and genuinely seems to have aged out of his prime.
In terms of interceptions, fumbles, turnovers, and sacks, he currently leads the league. Things got worse for him due to injuries to his shoulder and ankle.

Due to a shoulder injury, the Colts have confirmed that Matt Ryan will miss the remainder of the season. The Indianapolis-based franchise announced last week that they would be replacing Ryan with Sam Ehlinger for the remainder of the season.
Before being benched in the Colts offence, which has devolved into a mess, Ryan, 37, had nine touchdowns and a league-high nine interceptions in seven games played. Marcus Brady, the offensive coordinator for Indy, was also fired this week.
Ehlinger performed well in the preseason, completing 24 of 29 passes for 289 yards, four touchdowns, and no interceptions. In addition, he gained 71 yards and a touchdown on 6 rushes. The Colts are likely give him an extended run due to his mobility.
