Chris Redman, former University of Louisville quarterback, will be hard to ignore when things go south for the Atlanta Falcons’ starting quarterback Matt Ryan.

Redman was on his game Saturday, connecting on 15 of 19 passes for 134 yards. He threw for two touchdowns and ran for another in the Falcon’s come-from-behind 27-24 win over the San Diego Chargers in a pre-season exhibition game.

Redman took over for Ryan midway through the third quarter with the Falcons trailing the defending AFC West Champions 21-13.
