FLOWERY BRANCH — All four of Atlanta’s quarterbacks are expected to play in Thursday night’s preseason opener against Washington, setting a pattern of frequent substitutions that should follow at other positions. Matt Ryan and top backup Matt Schaub will be the first two quarterbacks in the game, followed by Sean Renfree and Matt Sims. Ryan and other starters are expected to have limited playing time.
