Steve Wilks was one of the better stories in the NFL this past season. After having just one season as head coach in 2018 with the Cardinals before he was unceremoniously fired—hardly a fair shake with a shaky roster—Wilks wrung quality play out of a Panthers squad with big question marks at quarterback in 2022. It was an impressive coaching job for a team that had fallen apart under the previous head coach, and he ultimately went .500 over the final 12 games of the season. The quality of that work, which the Falcons saw twice from the other sideline, has apparently piqued Atlanta’s interest.
