Atlanta Falcons Interview Steelers Coach For Defensive Coordinator Job

The Atlanta Falcons started the 2022 season well, but unfortunately, they fell off in a big way, and followed their season by firing their Defensive Coordinator, and now, they are one of five teams looking for someone to fill that role this off-season.

They've eyed up several candidates, but now, they've interviewed perhaps the best of the lot in the form of former Miami Dolphins Head Coach and current Pittsburgh Steelers Senior Defensive Assistant and Linebackers Coach, and if he can't make the jump back to Head Coach, there's a good chance he could take a job like this.

The #Falcons interviewed #Steelers senior defensive assistant and linebackers coach Brian Flores for their vacant DC job, source said.

Despite the fiasco in Miami, Flores is one of the most experienced defensive coaches available, and with so many DC jobs up for grabs, there's a very good chance that he takes one of them, whether it be this one in Atlanta with a talented group or any other.
