Atlanta Falcons will hire Raheem Morris as their new head coach, snubbing Bill Belichick after interviewing the six-time Super Bowl winner TWICE

Raheem Morris will be the new head coach of the Atlanta Falcons, who chose the Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator after interviewing Bill Belichick twice.

Morris, who served as an assistant in Atlanta from 2015 to 2020, reportedly won over the Falcons’ front office with his plan for the team.

The Falcons conducted an extensive interview process, interviewing Belichick, Ejiro Evero and Bobby Slowik twice. They also spoke with Mike Vrabel earlier this week.

But Morris, 47, won the race to get the Falcons job. He has secured his second head coaching position after leading the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2009 to 2011.
