Rees is set to be hired as the Falcons’ offensive coordinator, according to media reports. He joins Jeff Ulbrich, who is returning as the defensive coordinator after one year.

After hiring their coach and some of their assistant coaches, the Atlanta Falcons’ search for a general manager is moving forward.

Kevin Stefanski started 13 quarterbacks in six seasons as Cleveland's head coach, highlighted — or lowlighted — by the failings of Baker Mayfield and Deshaun Watson.

Bill Callahan, a longtime assistant who’s worked with new coach Kevin Stefanski in the past, was named the Falcons’ offensive line coach Tuesday.

With Matt Ryan designated as the primary decision maker, the general manager will be considered the secondary decision maker, according to the league rules.

New Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski could use Bijan Robinson to set up play-action, as he did with Dalvin Cook in Minnesota and Nick Chubb in Cleveland.

Under Jeff Ulbrich, Atlanta broke the franchise record for sacks last season and had several young defensive players blossom in their first or second years.

Also: The Hawks are still bad on defense without Trae Young, Matt LaFleur stays in Green Bay and Georgia men's basketball is No. 28 in adjusted efficency ratings.

Defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich is expected to stay with the Falcons, while offensive line coach/run game coordinator Dwayne Ledford is expected to move on.
