Morris making major transition for Falcons

Raheem Morris played defensive back in college.

Every game he’s coached in the NFL, he has been on the defensive side of the ball.

But when eight-year assistant Terry Robiskie departed the team to become the offensive coordinator of the Tennessee Titans, Falcons coach Dan Quinn was left with a major hole on his coaching staff. He came to believe that Morris’ defensive mind could help the offense as a wide receivers coach.
