Paul Greengrass worked alongside Matt Damon for The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum and most recently Jason Bourne. While Matt Damon is not nearly as old as Sylvester Stallone, this change of pace for Jason Bourne could be a potentially good direction for Universal to take the franchise. With this, the Rocky franchise has still been allowed to continue with Rocky's role being changed from a main player to a mentor. Much like how Sylvester Stallone retired his Rocky character from the Rocky franchise in favor of the young Adonis in Creed. However, Universal could take Bourne out of the main action and make him more of a teacher to a younger generation.
This could mean the end is in sight for the Bourne franchise. Jason Bourne, as skilled as he is, is not as young as he used to be and physically may not be as capable as he once was.
While that might not mean much to most, in the action world, it means a great deal. While the franchise has become a touchstone in the action genre, setting the base for many films that would follow, it's been a full decade since the release of The Bourne Identity.
