Quinn mum on his meeting with White

By
Oct 9, 2015

FLOWERY BRANCH – After practice on Friday, Falcons coach Dan Quinn didn't want to elaborate about his one-on-one meeting with wide receiver Roddy White.

“It went well,” Quinn said.

The two met on Thursday over White’s role in the offense. The franchise’s all-team leading receiver has caught only six passes for 92 yards this season and didn’t catch passes in two games.

His streak of 130 consecutive games with a catch was snapped in the second game of the season against the New York Giants.

Quinn said earlier in the week that team would not put a focus on getting White the ball.

Quarterback Matt Ryan said he’ll stick to the passing progressions within the framework of the offense.

White went into more detail about the meet on Thursday. Quinn had not been available to discuss the meeting until today.
