Reports Point to Raheem Morris’ Exit, With Falcons Eyeing Post-Thursday Timing

Arthur Blank is expected to decide after the Buccaneers game to stay consistent with his typical no‑midseason‑firings approach.

Overview

  • The slumping Falcons are 4-10 and already out of the playoff race after dropping seven of their past eight games.
  • Jason La Canfora reported Morris is “as good as gone,” while Morris publicly said Arthur Blank is “100% in support” of him.
  • Multiple outlets say any in-season change would most plausibly come after Thursday night’s game or wait until season’s end, with Jeff Ulbrich often mentioned as a possible interim option.
  • Underperformance on offense and special teams has fueled the pressure, with Atlanta 31% on third downs, just 252 points scored, and errors placing coordinators Zac Robinson and Marquice Williams under scrutiny.
  • Quarterback uncertainty follows Michael Penix Jr.’s season-ending ACL tear, and roster flexibility is limited after trading the 2026 first-round pick to the Rams to draft edge rusher James Pearce.
