On Tuesday, Rams executive had a second interview with the Atlanta Falcons for the open general manager position. Not much else happened by late Wednesday until news broke the Falcons met again with Titans offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. The Falcons previously met with Smith on Monday so the team is showing quite a bit of interest.
It is unclear what general manager candidate is pitching Smith as head coach, but the Falcons are unable to hire any general manager from a team still in the playoffs. That means the aforementioned Holmes and Terry Fontenot of the Saints could actually have a deal in principle worked out, however, it cannot be official until their respective team is booted from the playoffs.
