Atlanta Falcons: Top 3 most likely coaching hires as search winds down

2. Arthur Smith

Arthur Smith conducted a second virtual interview with the Atlanta Falcons earlier this week and many analysts have come to believe that he is the favorite to win the position.

Smith, the current Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator, isn’t just being courted by the Falcons, though.

He has conducted second interviews with the Jets and Lions, and he has had at least one interview with every single franchise who has a head coach opening.

It’s not clear who has the upper hand at the moment and the Falcons are seemingly in it, but the amount of competition certainly makes this one a little more difficult.
