After just two seasons, the Falcons have decided to let Coach Raheem Morris go.

GM Terry Fontenot was also fired. Raheem made history by becoming the first black head coach for the Falcons and while the verdict is split, many wanted to see if he could turn things around with a third season.

He’ll still get paid though. While exact details surrounding Morris’ contract are not available, the Falcons are expected to owe Morris around $12 million.
