The Atlanta Falcons have bolstered their defensive coaching staffs with two faces familiar to various parts of the franchise.
Former Seattle DL coach Travis Jones and former NFLUK head of football development Aden Durde have been hired as the new assistant defensive line coach and a defensive quality control assistant, respectively, per the team.
Some background on both. Jones was Quinn’s defensive line coach during his two years as defensive coordinator of the Seattle Seahawks, where he oversaw one of the most dangerous defensive fronts in the NFL. He held the position through 2016, and was with Seattle last season as a senior defensive analyst.
