It’s crazy the number of times I’ve been like “haven’t heard from so and so in a while, let me google them to make sure there’s not an obituary there” only to find out there is in fact an obituary there… check on your people.
The Atlanta Falcons are set to hire Jeff Scott as their Assistant GM, per source. Scott has worked across various departments within scouting and football operations, most recently with the Eagles. Scott also has been a participant in the NFL’s Accelerator Program.
The #Falcons are planning to release WR Darnell Mooney, sources say, with Mooney set to count $18.4M against the salary cap.
Mooney, still just 28, has averaged better than 13 yards per catch in each of the last three seasons.
