Keith Armstrong sees room for improvement on special teams

Keith Armstrong doesn't have a lot of patience for players who think they're above playing on special teams.

Still, some players come into the league feeling like special teams is beneath them, and Armstrong said he does take that personally. Armstrong took a proactive approach with this year's group of rookies, taking steps to demonstrate for them that special teams are an important part of the Falcons' success and that even the best players aren't above contributing.

"I got pictures of Justin Hardy, Tevin Coleman, Terron Ward, all in their superstar roles in college," Armstrong said.
