Falcons Hiring Kevin Stefanski as Head Coach
The Atlanta Falcons are hiring Kevin Stefanski as their new head coach, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Stefanski reportedly flew to Atlanta for his second interview on Saturday, and the team signed him to a contract before he could leave the city. The 43-year-old was recently fired by the Cleveland Browns after six years as their head coach. His tenure in Cleveland produced mixed results. The Browns had two 11-win seasons under his leadership and made the playoffs twice. Stefanski also won Coach of the Year on two different occasions. However, he went just 1-2 in the playoffs and finished with a 45-56 regular-season record. The Browns won only eight games during his final two seasons. Stefanski's hiring represents a fresh start for both himself and the Falcons. Atlanta went 8-9 in each of Raheem Morris' two seasons at the helm, failing to make the playoffs on either occasion. Stefanski, who is a bright offensive mind, will look to help Atlanta emerge as the top team in a wide-open NFC South. The offense has plenty of upside, especially if quarterback Michael Penix Jr. (knee) is able to return in time for Week 1 of the 2026 NFL season.
