As the Atlanta Falcons prepare to play their final game of the season, the talk around head coach Arthur Smith‘s future is heating up. Will the team keep Smith for another year, or look to move in another direction?
Reports coming out indicate that Falcons owner Arthur Blank is still on the fence. It seems entirely possible that the outcome of Sunday’s season finale against the New Orleans Saints could determine Smith’s fate in Atlanta. The third-year head coach has compiled a record of 21-29.
The Athletic’s Dianna Russini released a feature on the NFL head coaching carousel and she provided some interesting info on Blank.
