Falcons finalizing deal to hire Kevin Stefanski as their head coach

The Atlanta Falcons are reportedly finalizing a deal with Kevin Stefanski to become their next head coach. Stefanski, who previously served as the head coach for the Cleveland Browns, was dismissed after the regular season. During his tenure with the Browns, Stefanski accumulated a 45-56 record over six seasons and led the team to the playoffs twice, though they were eliminated in their first game on both occasions. The Browns struggled with poor quarterback play, contributing to a decline with an 8-26 record over the last two seasons. As Stefanski joins the Falcons, he faces the challenge of improving the team's quarterback performance, particularly focusing on the health and performance of Michael Penix, who is recovering from a significant knee injury.
