FLOWERY BRANCH -- Rookie quarterback Desmond Ridder’s four-game audition is complete.

Ridder played all 64 offensive snaps in the 30-17 win over the Buccaneers, with Tom Brady and his backups, on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Ridder now has played 271 offensive snaps over his four starts. He posted a 2-2 record as he completed 73 of 115 passes (63.5%) for 708 yards and two touchdowns.

Perhaps the best thing he did was take care of the football as he didn’t throw any interceptions. However, he did have a couple near interceptions against the Saints.

Here’s a look at the playtime chart from the game:
