Falcons hire wide receivers, tight ends coaches

This football season may not be officially over yet, but the Atlanta Falcons are continuing to prepare for next season. With a head coach in place, as well as an offensive, defensive, and special teams coordinator, Raheem Morris now turned their sights to hiring individual group coaches.

On Thursday evening, it was announced that the Falcons are hiring Ike Hilliard as wide receivers coach and Kevin Koger as tight ends coach.

The former first round pick by the New York Giants in 1997, Hilliard spent eight seasons in New York before finishing his playing career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he spent four seasons.
