FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- For the first time in several years, there is a real sense of hope locally for the Atlanta Falcons.
The team announced Tuesday that it has sold out its season-tickets packages before training camp for the first time in two decades. The Falcons had their highest season-ticket sales in the month of March, on the back of signing free-agent quarterback Kirk Cousins, and their highest season-ticket retention rate in 20 years.
Atlanta also has a new coaching staff led by head coach Raheem Morris, a former interim head coach and defensive coordinator with the Falcons.
