The Atlanta Falcons dismissed head coach Arthur Smith just hours after the team’s 48-17 loss to the New Orleans Saints in Week 18. While Smith’s firing was expected following Atlanta’s third straight 7-10 season, it sounds like he won’t be out of work for very long.
Smith first made a name for himself as the offensive coordinator of the Tennessee Titans before taking over as head coach of the Falcons in 2021. According to a report from Dianna Russini of The Athletic, seven teams have reached out to Smith about offensive coordinator jobs.
