Former UNC OL Arthur Smith expresses ‘love and appreciation’ for Falcons players after firing

Posted Jan 8, 2024
Arthur Smith was back at the Atlanta Falcons’ practice facility on Monday morning for a final meeting with his players after he was fired. Smith had the support of the players but that was not enough to overcome a third consecutive 7-10 finish. The coaching change was announced at midnight, so Monday’s meeting was an opportunity to say goodbye. (Associated Press)
