Ex-Falcons head coach Smith won't coach again

TAMPA, Fla. -- Former Atlanta Falcons head coach Mike Smith, who was fired as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' defensive coordinator in 2018, won't be pursuing any more coaching opportunities.

Appearing Tuesday on "The Opening Drive" on Sirius XM, Smith expressed his desire to turn the page after 35 seasons of coaching, including 19 in the NFL.

"I've been very blessed to have the opportunity to coach in the National Football League and I've enjoyed every minute of it. I think, for me and my family, it's time for us to look at some adventures and have a lot of things that we'd like to do, that I'd like to do," Smith said.
