statement<\/a> Saturday. \u201cTo serve as this franchise\u2019s head coach is a tremendous honor. I come from a football family, and I have deep respect for the history and tradition of this organization.\n <\/p>\n\n \u201cI\u2019m excited to begin assembling our staff and getting to work building our team. I would like to sincerely thank Steve Bisciotti and the Baltimore Ravens organization for 18 remarkable years, including the opportunity to become a head coach in the National Football League.\n <\/p>\n
\n \u201cMy family and I are grateful for the welcome we\u2019ve already felt, and we look forward to becoming part of the Giants family.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n The Atlanta Falcons announced Saturday they hired Kevin Stefanski as head coach.\n <\/p>\n
\n The Falcons fired Raheem Morris after finishing 8-9 in their eighth-straight season missing the playoffs. The search was overseen by new president of football Matt Ryan, the franchise\u2019s longtime quarterback who was hired to the front office just a week ago.\n <\/p>\n
\n Stefanski, 43, was fired after six seasons in Cleveland after the Browns went 5-12 this season. In 2020 and 2023, he was named NFL Coach of the Year, but his overall regular season record in Cleveland was just 45-56.\n <\/p>\n
\n \u201cI\u2019m beyond thrilled to be charged with leading this iconic franchise,\u201d said Stefanski.\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The first big moves of the NFL head coach hiring cycle were made Saturday by the New York…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":415539,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-415538","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/415538","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=415538"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/415538\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/415539"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=415538"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=415538"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=415538"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
