If you had any doubt that Raheem Morris would be coaching the Atlanta Falcons in 2025—and as I’ve written repeatedly, you shouldn’t have—it was erased when he arrived at the podium for his season-ending press conference on Monday. Morris is back for Year 2.
The job in that second season is to improve on the first one, something Morris acknowledged early and often. While offering few specific prescriptions for what ails the Falcons or addressing what moves are to come directly, which is as you’d expect for this sort of press conference, Morris did offer thoughts on what’s behind and ahead for Atlanta.
