Overview
- Atlanta hired Jeff Scott as assistant general manager on Wednesday, placing him under GM Ian Cunningham in a new structure that has Matt Ryan as president of football.
- Scott comes from the Eagles, where he was vice president of football operations since 2024 after earlier promotions to director of football operations in 2022 and senior pro scout in 2021.
- He previously spent nearly a decade in Washington’s pro scouting group, giving Atlanta a seasoned pro-personnel voice in the No. 3 role.
- Cunningham thanked Eagles GM Howie Roseman for allowing the move, which leaves Philadelphia with a key vacancy only weeks before the NFL Draft.
- The move continues a league trend of teams hiring from Philadelphia’s front office, reuniting Scott with Cunningham from their 2021 overlap in Philadelphia.
