The Atlanta Falcons plan to hire Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris as their head coach, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Morris replaces Arthur Smith, who was fired after the Falcons finished 7-10 this season.

It marks a return to Atlanta for Morris, who was part of Dan Quinn's Falcons staff in 2015-20. Morris took over as interim coach for the final 11 games of the 2020 season after Quinn was fired.
