Falcons held second interview with Brad Holmes for GM opening
The Atlanta Falcons have reportedly narrowed their search for the team’s next general manager to two or three candidates. After a week of interviews, it appears that Rams director of college scouting Brad Holmes and Saints vice president/assistant GM Terry Fontenot are the most likely to land the job.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Falcons held a second interview with Holmes on Saturday. Pelissero also mentioned former Texans GM Rick Smith as a candidate the team is high on.
