The Atlanta Falcons continued the restructuring of the front office with the hiring of Joel Collier as the director of pro personnel.
Collier last worked as the assistant general manager of the Kansas City Chiefs under then-general manager Scott Pioli, who is now the Falcons' assistant general manager. Collier spent five seasons in that role with Kansas City. Prior to his front-office work he was an assistant coach with the New England Patriots, Miami Dolphins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, working on both sides of the ball.
