Falcons switch Raheem Morris to defense in coaching staff shakeup

The Falcons spent the bye week evaluating the team, as one does when they are 1-7, and decided on some changes. We have yet to see if there are changes to the roster on the way as well, but Dan Quinn has seen fit to shake up the coaching staff, at the very least.

Per the team, Quinn is moving Raheem Morris back to the defensive side of the ball to work with defensive backs. Assistant special teams coach Bernie Parmalee will coach running backs—and as he was one, that seems like a logical move—while Dave Brock will slide over from running backs coach to wide receivers coach.
