The Falcons have been linked to a number of candidates for their general manager job already, ranging from former Texans GM Rick Smith to former Raiders GM Reggie McKenzie. Those candidates have differing levels of experience, but all of them are in a team front office in some capacity today.
All, that is, except Louis Riddick. Per The Athletic’s Jeff Schultz, Riddick is a candidate in Atlanta, something that our own Eric Robinson has stumped for and various NFL talking heads have indicated was a possibility for teams with general manager openings this offseason.
ESPN commentator and former Washington and Philadelphia pro personnel director Louis Riddick is among a list of candidates for Falcons' GM job, according to sources.
