Bush Hamdan, a former quarterback at Boise State, is set to be named the Falcons new quarterbacks coach, according to The Sporting News.

The team said the move is not official at this time.

Hamdan was the wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator at the University of Washington.

He’ll replace Matt LeFleur, who became the Los Angeles Rams offensive coordinator and work under new offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian.

Hamdan, who’s never coached in the NFL, also had coaching stops at Davidson, Arkansas State and Florida, where he was the wide receivers coach in 2012, when Falcon coach Dan Quinn was the defensive coordinator.

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn tells media when he first started thinking about hiring offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian and how Sarkisian will fit with Matt Ryan.
