Raheem Morris On Why Atlanta Drafted Michael Penix Jr. & What It Means For Kirk Cousins

Recorded: May 9th 2024 | In our final interview from our trip to Atlanta, the boys sit down with Head Coach Raheem Morris. Coach gets into what it's like building a staff when becoming a head coach and the different coaches he called to come with him. The boys ask him how he got his start in coaching and what he has taken from each stop he has had along the way, including being a part of the 2013 Redskins staff. Coach Morris was the interim head coach for Atlanta 4 years ago but didn't get the head job because they decided to hire Arthur Smith instead. Coach talks about how he feels about being back in the building after they decided not to go with him in the first place. The guys end the pod by talking about the decision to draft Michael Penix Jr. and the conversation that was had between Coach Morris and Kirk Cousins. All in all you can tell that Coach Morris is just another one of the boys and will feel good about the Falcons going into the season. Enjoy.
