The AtlantaFalcons announced that they are keeping coach Dan Quinn and general manager Thomas Dimitroff in 2020.
ATLANTA — Closing another disappointing season but buoyed by a strong finish, the Atlanta Falcons announced Friday they are keeping coach Dan Quinn in 2020.
"I have long believed that continuity in leadership is very important across all our businesses," Blank said. "The football team is no different in that regard." Atlanta made a second straight playoff appearance in 2017, reaching the divisional round of the NFC playoffs before losing to the eventual Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles.
"After weighing several factors, including our team’s statistical turnaround and our players’ focus and effort the second half of the season, I feel the decision to retain Thomas and Dan, with Rich providing close day-to-day oversight of the football operation, will provide the timeliest route for the Atlanta Falcons to return to contention in 2020 and beyond.," the owner added.
The promotion of Morris to defensive co-ordinator follows a restructuring of the coaching staff during a midseason bye week with the team mired in a six-game losing streak.
