FLOWERY BRANCH — The Falcons are parting ways with director of player personnel Lionel Vital, the team confirmed on Sunday.
Vital, who had just completed his third season in that role, agreed to part ways with the team on Sunday. He was offered another position, but felt it was best to move on.
“I just felt, we felt that it would just be fairer for the new guy, who is going to be doing that duty, to deal with fresh people,” Vital told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Sunday.
