Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan exited Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams with an ankle injury. Ryan was seen limping while heading to the locker room.

Ryan was hobbling after being sacked by Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald in the fourth quarter. It was one of five sacks by the Rams on the day. He headed to the medical tent as the team trailed 27–3.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Ryan was spotted wearing a walking boot on his foot and is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Monday. The Falcons do not believe the injury is serious, however.

Ryan had 16 of 29 passes completed on the day for 159 yards and one interception. He has thrown for 2,011 yards and 15 touchdowns on the season.
