ACCURACY:
His throws are in-line with his receivers, showing precision passes made at the short and intermediate range. Good anticipation and timing with his receivers over the middle.

RELEASE:
A left-handed QB who does a nice job adjusting the angle of his release. Throws with a classic over the top delivery with a high release point, fully extended. Can work to improve on his footwork prior to set up.
THROW ON RUN:

FOOTWORK:
This will be an area in which he’ll need to perfect. Ryan shows good agility around the pocket but will need to get his speed and quickness up.
