ATLANTA -- Less than a week after hiring their head coach, the Atlanta Falcons finalized their coordinators -- with a heavy Los Angeles Rams flair.

The Falcons announced former Rams assistant head coach Jimmy Lake as their defensive coordinator Monday, joining new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson, who also came over from the Rams, where he was quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator.

They'll reunite with new Falcons head coach Raheem Morris, who was hired from the Rams last week after serving as the team's defensive coordinator since 2021.
