KEY MATCHUPS

PRESEASON WEEK FOUR • FALCONS VS. JAGUARS

TEVIN COLEMAN {VS} MYLES JACK The Jacksonville Jaguars must account for the explosiveness of Atlanta’s running game, especially Tevin Coleman, who can burst out of the Falcons backfield with frightening speed. The same three starting linebackers from Jacksonville’s 2016 squad are back, but second-year pro Myles Jack has been rotated from strong-side linebacker to the middle linebacker position. The move features Jack’s athleticism in an increased role that the coaching staff believes will improve the defense in both man and zone situations. Coleman’s effectiveness as a runner, pass-catcher and pass-protector, however, steepens Jack’s challenge.

RYAN SCHRAEDER {VS} CALAIS CAMPBELL Having already heavily invested in adding talent to its defensive line in recent years, Jacksonville continued the trend by adding 10-year veteran defensive end Calais Campbell to the rotation this offseason. Campbell is one of the premier strong-side defensive ends in the NFL and uses his 6-foot-8, 300-pound frame to disrupt the line of scrimmage. The size (6-7, 300) and physicality of Falcons right tackle Ryan Schraeder will be needed to negate Campbell’s impact against the run and pass.

DUKE RILEY {VS} LEONARD FOURNETTE Two former LSU teammates and current rookies will share the field for the offseason’s final dress rehearsal. Jacksonville drafted running back Leonard Fournette with the fourth overall pick of the draft and hopes that his 6-foot, 228-pound frame will add physicality to the running game and save it from another unexceptional season. Duke Riley was Atlanta’s third-round pick at 75th overall and adds even more athleticism to Atlanta’s young and talented linebacker corps. The Jaguars will need Fournette to get going if they are to set up the play-action passing that has been missing in their offense, and Riley will need to use his speed and sure tackling to stop Fournette from doing that.

KEANU NEAL {VS} ALLEN ROBINSON Jacksonville wide receiver Allen Robinson had a breakout season in 2015 that resulted in a franchise-record 14 touchdown catches. The inconsistent play of a 3-13 football team hurt Robinson’s production this past season, but 2017 could be another big year for the former Penn State receiver. Robinson was targeted 151 times last season, and if Jacksonville begins to force throws to Robinson, expect strong safety Keanu Neal to arrive with force.

By Alex Ewalt

fter Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was sacked for the third time—and twice in 80 seconds of game clock in the fourth quarter—in Super Bowl LI, many football fans were asking the same question: Who is Grady Jarrett?

The Falcons’ third-year man had just tied the Super Bowl record for sacks, and as ESPN Stats & Info later pointed out, he became just the second player ever to sack Brady three times in a game, postseason or otherwise. Had the Falcons held on to win on Feb. 5, the interior lineman would have had a great chance at the game’s MVP award. Jarrett had been an unassuming presence on Atlanta’s defense since getting drafted in the fifth round out of Clemson in 2015, and his three Super Bowl sacks matched his output for the entire 2016 regular season and playoffs. But the 6-foot, 305-pounder had been steadily growing into his potential before his breakout night. “[The Super Bowl] makes me set a standard I have to hold myself to or try to surpass,” Jarrett said in the

summer. “I feel like it’s the beginning for my career, just kind of scratching the surface of what’s to come.”

HOMETOWN BOY “It’s really just a dream come true to be able to play for my home team.” That was Jarrett’s reaction shortly after getting drafted in 2015, and his connections to Atlanta run deep. Born in Conyers, he starred at Rockdale County High School. There he notched an eye-popping 63 tackles for loss and 27.5 sacks his junior and senior seasons before signing with Clemson, where he played alongside fellow Georgian Vic Beasley Jr. on the defensive line. Even though some analysts projected Jarrett as high as a second- or third-round pick, “conventional wisdom” concerning the ideal size for defensive tackles won out; his listing at just over six feet tall and right at 300 pounds meant he would be drafted at No. 137 overall, long after his teammate Beasley, who went No. 8.

Jarrett became the fourth player in Super Bowl history to record three sacks.

BIG GAME, BIG PERFORMANCE

The Falcons were betting Jarrett’s stout build and quickness would overshadow his lack of prototypical size, which he has had to overcome throughout his career. Luckily, he has two great templates for overcoming just that obstacle.

Jarrett became the fourth player in Super Bowl history to get three sacks, joining the likes of Hall of Famer Reggie White of the Packers, Darnell Dockett of the Cardinals and Carolina’s Kony Ealy, who achieved the feat the year prior in a losing effort. Jarrett dropped Brady for the first time with just under six minutes to play in the first quarter, tracking Brady as he stepped up in the pocket and dropping him as he pump-faked. The second and third sacks came between the 12- and 10-minute marks in the fourth quarter; Jarrett slipped around offensive lineman Marcus Cannon to slam Brady head-on for a 5-yard loss on first-and-goal, and he dropped him for another 5 yards with a speed rush on third-and-goal to force a Patriots field goal.

But because his breakout performance came in Jarrett is the son of former linebacker Jessie Tuggle, such a dramatic defeat, Jarrett feels bittersweet a member of the Falcons’ inaugural Ring of Honor in about the experience. 2004. Tuggle—who at under six feet also knew how to play bigger than his body—starred for the team from “I feel like the effort I gave on that day was just because 1987 to 2000 while racking up a franchise-record I wanted that win so badly,” Jarrett said. “It just makes 1,640 tackles. Ray Lewis, another linebacking legend me want it even more for this team, for this city. Being who was once knocked because of his size, has also an Atlanta guy means so much to me.” played a prominent role in Jarrett’s life. Jarrett was close to Lewis growing up and considers him family. With the departure of 11-year veteran Jonathan They still talk frequently. Babineaux from the middle of the line, Jarrett’s development will be even more crucial this season. Jarrett has drawn inspiration from those two on his own He’s poised to become a centerpiece of a rising Falcons journey to silence the doubters. defense that aims to terrorize even more quarterbacks. “I was always the guy that was overlooked,” Jarrett told “The expectations I set for myself are just to be better Jeff Schultz of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution before than I was last year,” Jarrett said. “Make plays when the Super Bowl. “But when you put the tape on, people they’re there, and become a dominant force on every would try to deny it, but the production was there.” down. Just be the player I know I can be.”

RUNNING BACK LEONARD FOURNETTE, THE NO. 4 OVERALL PICK, RUSHED FOR 3,830 YARDS IN THREE SEASONS AT LSU

SERIES RECORD: 3-3 SERIES TIED

JAGUARS ALL-TIME 155-197 RECORD: 1995–PRESENT

he Jacksonville Jaguars are looking for a turnaround after nine seasons without a winning record, including a 3-13 mark in 2016. The Jags have also gone through three head coaches since 2012, and the latest is Doug Marrone, who took over with two games remaining after Gus Bradley’s firing last season. Marrone guided the team to a 1-1 record and had the interim tag lifted on Jan. 9. His resume includes previous stops as head coach of Syracuse and the Buffalo Bills, where he went 15-17 in 2013-14.

There is an uncertain quarterback situation in Jacksonville after Blake Bortles, who has started 45 consecutive regular-season games for the Jaguars, struggled mightily in 2016 and the preseason. Veteran backup Chad Henne has started 53 games over his nine-year career with the Miami Dolphins and Jags and has thrown 58 touchdown passes to 63 interceptions. Henne got the start in the third preseason game, a 24-23 loss to the Carolina Panthers, but Marrone named Bortles the Game 1 starter on Saturday. The receiving corps is talented, but its two biggest names saw their production decrease last season. Allen Robinson went from 1,400 yards and 14 touchdowns in 2015 to 883 and six last season, and Allen Hurns went from 1,031 and 10 to 477 and

three. Marqise Lee had a career-high 851 yards last season, but he has missed time with a non-contact leg injury in preseason practice. The team took running back Leonard Fournette No. 4 overall from LSU, although he has yet to play in the preseason due to a nagging foot injury. Veteran Chris Ivory figures to lead the rushing attack against the Falcons. The offensive line is solid, although Branden Albert, a two-time Pro Bowl left tackle, retired (then attempted to unretire, then was released) abruptly after a trade sending tight end Julius Thomas to Miami. The Jaguars are optimistic the defense will improve, as the team was 25th in points per game allowed last year at 25. Jalen Ramsey, the second-year cornerback out of Florida State, led all rookies in passes defended last season with 14. He seems poised to become one of the league’s elite corners. The Jags signed defensive end Calais Campbell to a big contract in the offseason, further showing the team’s commitment to improving on D. Campbell can rush on the outside or play physically on the inside. Dante Fowler Jr., the team’s first-round pick in 2015, hasn’t lived up to his potential yet after missing his entire rookie season with an ACL tear. The linebacking corps is solid with Telvin Smith, Paul Posluszny and Myles Jack.

ARTHUR BLANK

OWNER & CHAIRMAN “All of our businesses live by a set of core values and culture. There are so many people that support the Atlanta Falcons, beyond on the field, the players and coaches, and we want to recognize that.”

he 2017 season marks the 16th for Arthur M. Blank as Owner and Chairman of the Falcons. Blank, the co-founder of the world’s largest home improvement retailer, The Home Depot, has established his franchise as one of the best in the NFL. Now with the launch of Mercedes-Benz Stadium, an acclaimed Major League Soccer franchise, Atlanta United and the leading golf retailer in PGA TOUR Superstore, Blank was named one of the 50 Most Influential in Sports earlier this year by Sports Business Journal.

In the last three years, Blank added new leaders both on and off the field by hiring head coach Dan Quinn, as well as Steve Cannon as CEO of AMB Group, LLC. The two passionate leaders, along with Thomas Dimitroff, who is entering his 10th year as general manager, have been charged with leading his organizations to the next level and ensuring that Blank’s brands continue to win on and off the field. Quinn’s exuberance and passion was immediately felt within the organization. It was easy to tell why he was the top target for every team looking to fill its coaching vacancy, but it took a visionary like Blank to land Quinn here in Atlanta. Blank’s instincts proved true in 2016 when Quinn, in only his second year in Atlanta, worked in close partnership with Dimitroff to reshape the roster, secure an exceptional draft class and develop very young talent on both sides of the ball. In the end, that all culminated in a magical season in Atlanta that included the NFC South title, an NFC Championship and the franchise’s first Super Bowl appearance under Blank’s ownership. To underscore Blank’s promise to the fans to put together a team that competes for championships on and off the field, Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan was named NFL MVP and was the club’s Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year winner, while Coach Quinn was honored with

the NFL’s prestigious Salute to Service award for his unrelenting commitment to America’s military. The determination of Blank to build a consistent winner for this city and provide the fans in Atlanta a team they can be proud of and call their own is unmatched in sports. It is a passion that drives the owner and something he, Dimitroff and Quinn are fully aligned on as they look to build on the success of 2016. While Blank continues to focus on the football side of the franchise, as well as his philanthropic efforts and development of ranch properties in Montana, Cannon was hired to lead all business operations of the National Football League’s Atlanta Falcons; Atlanta United FC of Major League Soccer; Mercedes-Benz Stadium; PGA TOUR Superstore; Mountain Sky Guest Ranch; and West Creek Ranch. Since Blank acquired the Falcons in 2002, the team has made the playoffs seven times in 15 seasons. Under Blank’s leadership, the Falcons front office has also seen unprecedented success. Three years before Blank purchased the Falcons, the club averaged about 37,000 season-ticket holders per year. Since 2002, the Falcons have never sold fewer than 50,000 season tickets in any year. Additionally, during the same period, the club has sold out 118 of 120 regular-season games and is currently riding a streak of nine consecutive sellout seasons. Blank is also a key contributor to many of the NFL’s major committees. He currently chairs the NFL Audit Committee and Compensation Committee, and he is a member of the league’s Finance, Legislative and Workplace Diversity committees.

MERCEDES-BENZ STADIUM The world-class Mercedes-Benz Stadium (MBS) is designed to create an unparalleled fan experience.

Taking the guest experience to an unmatched level, MBS will elevate and enhance the downtown landscape and lead the industry in design, technology and sustainability. This stadium will contribute to the longterm growth and success of the city and state. Every stadium feature has been designed with the fan in mind. MBS will offer fan-friendly food and beverage pricing and options; best-in-class service; state-ofthe-art audio and visual systems; 71,000 seats with scalability up to 83,000 offering expanded legroom; 673 points of sale for concessions for shorter lines and a better experience; expanded concourses and 360 degree circumnavigation on each level to allow increased access and walkability; 20 elevators; 25 escalators; 190 suites; 7,600 club seats; seven exclusive dining and entertainment club areas and skybridges; and standing-only gathering places on all three concourses. The Roof: One of the most widely recognized hallmarks of Mercedes-Benz Stadium, the ocular roof features eight petals that can open and close in 9-12 minutes, providing the ability to host a wide variety of sporting and entertainment events in the open air or closed stadium environment. The roof covering is constructed of ETFE fabric that allows for translucent light to come into the stadium when closed. Window to the City: The unique, floor-to-ceiling Window to the City offers both interior and exterior views of the downtown landscape and skyline, which lets fans connect the experience with the city of Atlanta. Front Porch: The 110,000-square-foot open gathering place provides fans the opportunity to blend the indoor/ outdoor in-stadium experience and features live pre- and post-event entertainment inside the security perimeter.

Mercedes-Benz Stadium has already been successful in attracting marquee events to the city of Atlanta, such as the 2018 College Football National Championship, the 2019 Super Bowl and the 2020 NCAA Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Final Four.

MAKING A DIFFERENCE Starting with The Home Depot and continuing with his current businesses -- the Falcons, PGA TOUR Superstore, Mountain Sky Guest Ranch, West Creek Ranch, Atlanta United and The Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation -- Blankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business and personal values underscore the importance of giving back and becoming part of the community. During his 23 years with The Home Depot, the company donated more than $113 million to communities, and Home Depot associates provided hundreds of thousands of hours of personal volunteer time. Since its inception in 1995, The Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation has granted more than $300 million to charitable organizations, with approximately two-thirds of the total focused on metro Atlanta, including the Historic Westside neighborhoods of Vine City, English Avenue and Castleberry Hill. In 2013, Blank publicly committed to making further significant investments in these communities by creating the Westside Neighborhood Prosperity Fund, which has invested in catalytic projects that ignite positive change and improve the quality of life in the neighborhoods surrounding Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The foundation has contributed $15 million so far to large-scale transformational projects that will result in lasting impact for community residents.

Halo Board: The one-of-a-kind, nearly six-story-tall (58 ft) and 360-degree HD video halo board is the largest in the world. Hanging from the circumference of the roof opening, this truly cutting-edge piece of technology will enhance the in-seat experience for every fan in Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

In 2014, Blankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foundation launched its first major project, Westside Works, a long-term neighborhoodbased program focused on creating job training and employment opportunities for residents. Westside Works has trained and placed over 500 men and women in living-wage jobs in construction, health care, culinary arts and auto technician sectors during its first two years of operation.

Mercedes-Benz Stadium will feature the best food and beverage experience of any sports facility in the world. It has set the bar with its Fan First pricing model, which means prices on all food items at Mercedes-Benz Stadium will be comparable to the prices found on the same food and beverage items at a local restaurant or convenience store (i.e. $2 bottled water, refillable sodas, hot dogs; $3 nachos, pizza slices, waffle fries; $5 12 oz. domestic beer) featuring affordable pricing for premium quality, whole-dollar pricing to minimize wait time and availability to all fans regardless of the event.

Community engagement is a priority for the Falcons as well. The Atlanta Falcons Youth Foundation invests in innovative approaches to increase the time kids spend in physical activity and to give more children access to healthy foods. Since 2002, the foundation has awarded more than $28 million in grants to nonprofit organizations serving children across Georgia. As a leader in the Georgia SHAPE initiative, the youth foundation is helping Georgia elementary schools reach more than 350,000 students through the Power Up for 30 program, which adds 30 minutes of physical activity during the school day. Through the Rise Up! 159

initiative, AFYF is partnering with schools and youth football associations to expand NFL Flag Football programs in Georgia’s 159 counties. In addition, Atlanta Falcons players, coaches, cheerleaders, associates and their spouses remain among the most active community citizens in the NFL, contributing an average of 3,000 hours of their collective time each season. Much of this time is spent participating in Atlanta Falcons community relations programs and initiatives that support a variety of issues and activities, including: health and fitness, breast cancer awareness, combating hunger, the development of youth/prep football, Salute to Service and outreach in underserved communities.

HOW IT ALL BEGAN A native of Flushing, N.Y., Blank attended Stuyvesant High School in Manhattan, where he competed on the football, baseball and track teams. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in accounting with distinction from Babson College, where he was active in a variety of extracurricular activities. Blank cofounded The Home Depot in 1978 and retired from the company as co-chairman in 2001. At the time of his retirement, The Home Depot was a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and one of Fortune magazine’s “Global Most Admired Companies.” During Blank’s last year as CEO of the company, The Home Depot ranked first in social responsibility in an annual survey conducted by Harris Interactive. Blank is recognized throughout the country for his personal and professional achievements. In 2012, he received an honorary doctor of laws degree from the University of Georgia. In 2011, he was the recipient

of the Freeing Voices, Changing Lives Award from the American Institute for Stuttering, and in 2010, he was recognized by the Council for Quality Growth for his philanthropic endeavors as well as his significant contributions to economic development and quality of life. In 2006, he was named a Distinguished American by the Walter Camp Football Foundation, which annually recognizes an individual who has utilized his or her talents to attain great success in business, private life or public service. Also in 2006, Blank was inducted into the Junior Achievement U.S. Business Hall of Fame and was awarded an honorary doctor of humanities degree from Furman University. In 2005, he was named National Entrepreneur of the Year by Ernst & Young. In 2003, for the second time in three years, Blank was named Georgia’s Most Respected CEO by Georgia Trend magazine, and in 2002, he was inducted into Georgia State University’s Business Hall of Fame. The Georgia Army National Guard Infantry Regiment appointed Blank as an honorary commander in July 2016. Individuals are selected as honorary commanders because of their position or influence in the community and their ability to foster awareness and public support for the military and its service members. Earlier this year, the Atlanta Sports Council honored Blank with its prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award. In January 2018, Blank will be inducted into the National Football Foundation’s Leadership Hall of Fame. Blank also serves on the board of trustees of The Carter Center and The Cooper Institute. Arthur and Angie Blank’s marriage in June 2016 brought together their respective families, including nine children and five grandchildren.

COMMITTED TO SERVICE

Cannon and his wife, Ann, reside in Atlanta, and they are the parents of nine children.

RICH MCKAY

PRESIDENT & CEO

McKay is the only executive in the league who has been the political and business point man on the successful negotiation and construction of two NFL stadiums. alcons President and CEO Rich McKay has been a fixture in the National Football League for more than 30 years. One of the league’s most influential executives, McKay recently finished his 13th season with the Atlanta Falcons including an NFC Championship title and a trip to Super Bowl LI.

McKay was initially hired by Owner and Chairman Arthur M. Blank in 2004 and served his first four years as the team’s general manager. He was promoted to president and chief executive officer in 2011. Together with Blank and Falcons General Manager Thomas Dimitroff, McKay played a key role in the coaching search that resulted in the hiring of Dan Quinn as Atlanta’s new head coach in early 2015. McKay played a pivotal role in the negotiation, development and progress of building Mercedes-Benz Stadium, a process that began in earnest in 2008. Working closely with Blank, the city of Atlanta, the state of Georgia and the Georgia World Congress Center Authority, McKay helped to secure approval and financing for Mercedes-Benz Stadium after years of intense negotiations. The club broke ground on Mercedes-Benz Stadium on May 19, 2014, with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, MLS Commissioner Don Garber and Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed in attendance for the historic announcement, and MBS opened earlier this year as the home of the Atlanta Falcons and MLS expansion team Atlanta United. He is the only executive to have led two successful stadium negotiations (Atlanta and Tampa Bay). In April 2014, McKay was named President of AMB Sports & Entertainment (AMBSE). McKay has served as a member of the NFL’s Competition Committee for the past 23 years. He was named cochairman of the committee in 1998, and on March 1, 2011, Goodell named him chairman of the committee. Prior to joining the Falcons, McKay spent 10 years with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, serving as general manager. While serving as general manager for Tampa

Bay (1994-2003) and Atlanta (2004-08), McKay was the architect of a Super Bowl-winning team (Super Bowl XXXVII) as well as six teams that reached the playoffs and three that advanced to the NFC Championship Game. McKay’s personnel scouting acumen was a successful formula that produced 59 players who played in the Pro Bowl during his time as an NFL general manager.

LEGACY OF SUCCESS

The McKay family is one of the most successful football families with substantial roots in both the collegiate and professional games. Rich’s late father, the legendary John McKay, led the University of Southern California Trojans to four national championships in 16 seasons. Rich’s older brother, J.K. McKay, was a starting wide receiver for the Trojans and part of two national championship teams (1972, ‘74) while playing for his father. Both Coach McKay and Rich saw their first draft picks selected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Lee Roy Selmon was the first pick for John McKay as a head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 1976, and Warren Sapp was the first pick for Rich McKay in 1995. After the enshrinement of Sapp and Brooks, Rich McKay became the first general manager in NFL history to have his first two draft picks go on to be firstballot members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. McKay earned his Bachelor’s degree in Economics in 1981 from Princeton University and graduated from Stetson’s College of Law in 1984. Born March 16, 1959, in Eugene, Ore., McKay grew up in Los Angeles and Tampa, graduating from Tampa’s Jesuit High School. McKay and his wife, Terrin, have two sons: Hunter, a 2012 graduate of Samford University in Birmingham, Ala., who is now employed in the Sports Information Office at Kennesaw State University in Kennesaw, Ga., and John, a 2015 graduate of the University of Southern California who is a scout with the Los Angeles Rams.

THOMAS DIMITROFF

GENERAL MANAGER

All six of the club’s Pro Bowlers from 2016 were brought in by Dimitroff and ESPN listed the Falcons as having the NFL’s top roster entering the 2017 season. eneral Manager Thomas Dimitroff is entering his 10th season in the role for the Falcons in 2017. Over the last two seasons, Dimitroff and Head Coach Dan Quinn have crafted a roster focused on fast, physical and relentless players. This team-building approach spurred the Falcons to an NFC title and the franchise’s second Super Bowl appearance in 2016. Over his nine seasons in Atlanta, the Falcons have posted 85 wins during the regular season and have made five postseason appearances.

A two-time Executive of the Year honoree by Sporting News (2008, ‘10), Dimitroff has been the architect of the most successful run in franchise history, including five consecutive winning seasons from 2008-12 and three straight playoff berths -- a first in franchise history. After the Falcons finised with an 8-8 record in 2015, the first year of the Quinn-Dimitroff partnership, the team made 18 moves prior to the NFL Draft including signing three-time Pro Bowl center Alex Mack, DE Derrick Shelby and WR Mohamed Sanu. The execution of the 2016 draft was precise. The Falcons wanted to add fast and physical players on both sides of the ball, and they did so by adding S Keanu Neal, LB Deion Jones, TE Austin Hooper, LB De’Vondre Campbell and G Wes Schweitzer. Dimitroff and Quinn’s vision blossomed during the 2016 season, as the Falcons won 11 games on their way to a fourth NFC South title and the franchise’s second Super Bowl appearance. The Falcons return nine offensive starters and 18 defensive players who started at least one game, and this offseason, Dimitroff signed CB Desmond Trufant and RB Devonta Freeman to five-year extensions. In April, Atlanta traded up five spots in the first round to select DE Takkarist McKinley out of UCLA. In their first offseason together, Dimitroff and Quinn made 21 moves prior to the draft as they re-

calibrated the roster. With the eighth overall pick in the 2015 Draft, Atlanta selected Clemson OLB Vic Beasley Jr., a native of Adairsville, Ga. Dimitroff and Quinn went defense again in the second round when they added LSU cornerback Jalen Collins before addressing a couple of offensive needs in the third round (RB Tevin Coleman, Indiana) and fourth round (WR Justin Hardy, ECU).

BUILDING A WINNER

Dimitroff built teams that won 36 games from 201012, which included three straight playoff berths and a trip to the NFC Championship Game, the most successful three-year stretch in franchise history. His landmark acquisition came during the 2011 Draft when Atlanta manufactured a trade in order to select University of Alabama wide receiver Julio Jones with the sixth pick. Jones has become one of the top receivers in the NFL since 2011 and has been named to four Pro Bowls. Dimitroff’s initial ‘08 draft was a windfall, delivering franchise quarterback Matt Ryan, the consensus NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year; starting left tackle Sam Baker; starting middle linebacker and All-NFL rookie selection Curtis Lofton; and eventual starting free safety Thomas DeCoud. Dimitroff has drafted or signed 13 players who have been named to a combined 24 Pro Bowls. Dimitroff started his climb to NFL general manager by working his way through the scouting ranks. He spent five years as the Director of College Scouting for New England (2003-07). Dimitroff captained his college team as a defensive back at the University of Guelph (Canada) from 1987– 89. He was born in Barberton, Ohio, in 1966. Thomas has one son, Mason, and one daughter, Aja Neve.

DAN QUINN

HEAD COACH

After going 8-8 in his first season as an NFL head coach, Quinn took the team to the franchise’s fourth NFC championship game and second Super Bowl in 51 years.

an Quinn was named the 16th head coach in Atlanta Falcons history in February 2015. In two years, he has compiled a 19-13 regular-season record and a 2-1 postseason mark while leading the club to an NFC title and its second Super Bowl appearance. Under Quinn’s guidance, Atlanta built on an 8-8 season in 2015 to finish at 11-5 last season. In his first playoff appearance as a head coach, Quinn dispatched his former team, the Seattle Seahawks, in the divisional round before closing the Georgia Dome with a 44-21 defeat of the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Championship Game. Despite falling to the New England Patriots, 34-28, in the NFL’s first Super Bowl decided by overtime, Quinn has built a brotherhood that is poised to challenge the NFC’s top echelon for years to come.

Last season, Quinn’s leadership helped produce six Pro Bowlers, including quarterback Matt Ryan, running back Devonta Freeman, wide receiver Julio Jones, center Alex Mack, outside linebacker Vic Beasley Jr. and placekicker Matt Bryant. Ryan became the first player in franchise history to be named NFL MVP and joined Jones and Beasley as Associated Press first-team All-Pros. Additionally, Quinn earned the NFL’s Salute to Service award for his commitment to honoring and supporting the armed services and the military community.

DEFENSIVE GURU Quinn’s influence on Atlanta’s young defense was clearly seen in 2016, as several first- and secondyear players filled key roles on the unit. His impact was perhaps clearest on Beasley, who took the NFL’s sack crown with 15.5 in his second year in the league -- the second-most by a Falcon in a single season since sacks became an official statistic in 1982. Atlanta’s young and improving defense was buoyed by the NFL’s top scoring offense in 2016. The Falcons captured their fourth NFC South title and secured the NFC’s second seed in the playoffs following an

11-5 season. While the offense fired on all cylinders, Quinn’s defense showed great strides over the final month of the season. Atlanta allowed 25.7 points per game for its first 11 games last season. Over the final five games of the regular season, that number dropped to just 20.8 points per game. In the playoffs, the defense held the Seahawks and Packers to 20 and 21 points respectively on the way to winning the NFC title. In his first season at the helm, Quinn led the team to a 5-0 start, becoming the first coach in franchise history to begin his career with five straight wins. Quinn took over the club after serving as the Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator for two seasons (2013-14), helping guide them to consecutive Super Bowl appearances. Quinn originally joined the Seahawks in 2009 after spending the previous six years coaching the defensive lines for the San Francisco 49ers (2003-04), Miami Dolphins (2005-06) and the New York Jets (2007-08). He previously served as the Seahawks assistant head coach/defensive line coach in 2009 under Jim Mora. Quinn was a four-year letter winner and two-time co-captain at Division III Salisbury (Md.) State as a defensive lineman, where he recorded 139 tackles and eight tackles for loss. He also lettered in track and held the school record in the hammer throw. He was inducted into the Salisbury State Athletic Hall of Fame in 2005. Quinn’s charitable foundation, Quinn’s Corps, which he and his wife, Stacey, started in 2005, serves members of the military both at home and abroad. Quinn’s foundation provides military families that are stateside with tickets to games while sending special care packages to soldiers who are deployed overseas. Quinn was born in Morristown, N.J. He and his wife reside in Suwanee, Ga.

he Falcons defensive line is shaping up to be one of the fiercest in the NFL, and a productive offseason has this group poised to make a statement in 2017.

Bryant Young was hired in February to serve as Atlanta’s new defensive line coach. Young, a fourtime Pro Bowler, played defensive tackle and end on the 49ers when Quinn was an assistant there and coached with Quinn at Florida. During the offseason, the Falcons looked to bulk up the defensive line. To achieve this goal, Atlanta brought in 2012 first-round draft pick Dontari Poe from Kansas City, signed Jack Crawford from Dallas and also selected defensive end Takkarist McKinley in the first round of the draft. Even though he was listed at 6-foot-3, 346 pounds last season with the Chiefs, Poe is remarkably nimble for his weight, which the Falcons coaches want to keep at 330 pounds or under. The nose tackle hit a weight goal he had worked out with coaches during OTAs, and the team believes that a slimmer Poe will have more stamina and pose more of a threat on the field for longer stints. “You have to be quick, you have to be fast,” Poe said. “You have to be able to play a lot of plays—a lot of fast plays.

ROOKIE (2017 1 ST RD. PICK)

6 TH SEASON (2 ND W/ ATL)

DEPTH AND TALENT Other options on the line include athletic defensive tackle Grady Jarrett. The 6-foot, 305-pound local product from Conyers had a breakout game in Super Bowl LI with a record-tying three sacks on Tom Brady. The combination of Poe and Jarrett this season could prove to be a major factor in Atlanta’s defensive success. Quinn, who preaches versatility, will also find space on the line for McKinley. The 6-foot-2, 250-pound defensive end from UCLA will provide another option for the pass rush. A healthy Adrian Clayborn returns to the mix, and Brooks Reed, a seven-year veteran, will be back as well. The 6-foot-3, 254-pound defensive end played in 15 games last season, starting seven. He had 17 solo tackles and two sacks. Derrick Shelby, at 6-foot-2, 280 pounds, will be back at the defensive end position. He played in just six games last season before an injury, starting four. Ra’Shede Hageman is a load on the interior and became more disruptive as the 2016 season wore on. The 6-foot6, 318-pounder could be primed for a big season. Six-year veteran Courtney Upshaw will be back for his second season as a Falcon. The 6-foot-2, 272-pound linebacker-turned-lineman played in 13 games last season with 24 tackles.

2016 RECORD NFC SOUTH

The Falcons’ first-team offense looked sharp in the first two preseason games but stumbled a bit against the Cardinals in a 24-14 loss in the third game. Matt Ryan completed only four of 11 passes, but Matt Schaub came in and went 5-of-6 in backup duty. The defense showed its potential to fly to the ball, forcing four fumbles and stuffing the run game; the Cardinals gained just 83 yards on 31 carries. This is the final tuneup for the Falcons before they open the season on Sept. 10 against the Bears in Chicago.

2016 OVERALL RECORD

2-4

2016 RECORD AFC SOUTH

The Jaguars enter Thursday’s game 1-2 in the preseason, having beaten the Patriots and fallen to the Buccaneers and Panthers. After the team’s 24-23 loss to the Panthers, head coach Doug Marrone announced that Blake Bortles would be the Game 1 starter at quarterback after a position battle with Chad Henne. The Jags defense has a budding star in cornerback Jalen Ramsey, and they are hoping that 2015 first-round pick Dante Fowler Jr. can live up to his potential on the defensive line.

HOME OF THE BEST SUPERHERO SHOWS ANYWHERE

ALL NEW THIS FALL

n Saturday, Feb. 4, the night before Super Bowl LI, Pey ton Manning walked to the microphone at the NFL Honors awards.

In the crowd, there were several other candidates for the NFL’s biggest honor, the MVP award as voted on by The Associated Press. Ezekiel Elliott of the Cowboys, Aaron Rodgers of the Packers and others were in the mix , but two frontrunners were conspicuously absent. In the end, Manning, a five-time winner of the award himself, announced that Matt Ryan beat out the Patriots’ Tom Brady for the first MVP award in Atlanta Falcons history, as both quarterbacks sat back in Houston awaiting the big game. Ryan would win the award with exactly half of the votes—25 out of 50—and Brady would fall short with 10. Ryan had just finished a season in which he put up the fif th-best passer rating of all time (117.1) while setting franchise records for passing yards (4,944), points (540) and touchdown passes (38). He comfortably led the league in yards per pass attempt at 9. 26 (Brady finished with 8. 2, and Rodgers with 7.3) and pass plays of over 40 yards with 17. He joined Manning, Rodgers and Dan Marino as the only quarterbacks to throw for more than 4,500 yards in a season while averaging better than nine yards an attempt.

In an even more amazing stat, Ryan’s completion percentage and overall production were even better as he worked his way down the depth chart. Remarkably, he threw touchdown passes to 13 dif ferent players, taking advantage of Julio Jones’ singular talent, Mohamed Sanu’s steady production as the No. 2 receiver, Taylor Gabriel’s emergence as a downfield weapon and the contributions of sure-handed running backs in Devonta Freeman and Tevin Coleman. Ryan’s MVP selection wasn’t unexpected on that Saturday night before the Super Bowl; he had been named first-team All-Pro earlier in the postseason. But his historic season only came af ter three trying years for him and the team.

BOUNCING BACK Matt Ryan was frustrated, and it was obvious. Facing the media af ter the Falcons’ 38-0 defeat at the hands of the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte in Week 14 of the 2015 season, he made no excuses for what would be the low point of the year. It was the Falcons’ six th-straight loss af ter starting the season 5-0, and with a record of 6-7 af ter the loss, the Falcons’ playof f hopes would suf fer a fatal blow. “ It was ugly,” R yan said. “ We played ver y poorly across the board, and we’ve got to find a way

to improve and get bet ter, and we need to do that immediately.” The playof fs eluded the Falcons that winter as they finished with an 8-8 record, but the of fseason would prove to be transformative. Another spring and summer in the of fensive system—as well as a few more weapons on of fense—would turn things around drastically. Ryan continued an of fseason workout routine that, according to Jones, helped him put a few more yards on deep balls. He also continued working on the agility and speed that would help him throw on the run and on the roll-outs that the of fense featured. And, quite simply, he became more comfortable with what he was being asked to do. The improvement was obvious from the start. Whereas the Falcons averaged just 15.5 points in their eight losses the previous season, af ter a season-opening slip against Tampa Bay in 2016, the team was of f and running with point totals of 35, 45 and 48 in three consecutive victories. In the 48-33 victory against Carolina at the Georgia Dome, Ryan helped the Falcons to their best of fensive game in franchise history. Ryan and Jones both set team records, Ryan throwing for 503 yards and four touchdowns and Jones racking up 300 of those yards. The Falcons attack was fast-paced and relentless with Ryan pulling the strings. “It has been really good for us spreading the ball around and getting a lot of dif ferent people involved,” Ryan said af ter the Week 4 win. “It makes it dif ficult for a defense when you have that many guys catching passes.”

SECOND-HALF SURGE Ryan was singled out by the media and players alike as the midseason favorite for MVP. Af ter the Falcons’ ninth game, a 43 -28 road win over the Bucs, ESPN ’s FiveThir t yEight heaped praise on Ryan and projected he would win the MVP at the rate he was producing. “ R yan’s high c omple tion p erc ent age (6 9 . 6) and low interc ep tion tot al (4) are even more impre s sive c onsidering how f ar he ’s throwing the ball downf ield ,” the si te publishe d on Nov. 7. “ His average c omple tion has c ome 7. 8 3 yards downf ield , the f ar the s t in the league ac c ording to the NFL’s G ame S t atis tic s & Information S ys tem .” The second half of the season brought more wins, and Ryan’s performance was just as impressive. Ryan led the team to 40 -point outbursts in blowout wins over the Rams and 49ers. He capped of f the regular season with a 38 -32 victor y over the Saints in the Georgia Dome’s last regular-season game, giving the Falcons

a four-game winning streak heading into the playof fs. In those four games, Ryan threw 11 touchdowns without a single interception, sending a clear message to the MVP voters as the Falcons closed out the regular season with an 11-5 record and the No. 2 seed in the NFC. With the win over New Orleans , the Falcons ex tended their league -leading point total to 54 0, 7 1 points over the second-place Saints and 99 points over third-place New England. The total was tied for seventh-most in league histor y with the 2000 S t . Louis Rams . Ryan would also become just the third quar terback , joining Brady and Rodgers , to throw for more than 3 , 500 yards in a season with fewer than 10 interceptions . Only adding to the impressiveness of Ryan’s feats was the fact that the Falcons finished tied for the highest strength of schedule in the league; their opponents went a combined 142114 in the regular season. An appreciative Dome crowd serenaded him with chants of “MVP, MVP” throughout the final regular-season game. “It feels pret t y good,” Ryan said of the chants. “It was nice of our fans to do that, and it was a pret t y cool moment out there today.”

KEEPING THE PACE Ryan is a notoriously hard worker in the offseason, studying game film religiously and focusing on minute details in his game to improve. The quarterback, who turned 32 in May, shows no sign of losing his edge in 2017. Never one to rest on his laurels, Ryan picked out several areas to work on during the offseason. “For me, it all comes back to getting yourself in position to throw the ball most accurately,” he said during OTAs in June. “I feel like even though we did some good things last year, you know, that part is done. We’ve reevaluated. We’ve seen some things that can get better in terms of our footwork , in terms of getting in position to throw the ball more consistently, and that ’s been a point of emphasis for us.” With Steve Sarkisian taking the reins of the offense, continuity is the key to producing another MVP-level season for the veteran in his 10th year. As the undisputed leader of the team, Ryan also knows it ’s part of his job to put the Super Bowl result behind him and keep the team moving forward. He addressed the 34-28 overtime loss to New England af ter a June practice. “We’re on to 2017. You learn from it, like we did. You deal with it, like we did. And then you move forward and start preparing to be the best football team that this group can be.”

RING OF HONOR ATLANTA FALCONS

THE ATLANTA FALCONS RING OF HONOR PAYS TRIBUTE TO RETIRED PLAYERS WHO MADE SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE ORGANIZATION DURING THEIR PLAYING CAREERS.

n 2003, the Atlanta Falcons organization, alongside long-time season-ticket holders, decided on the inaugural class of the Falcons Ring of Honor. The Falcons do not retire jerseys, but the franchise needed a way to recognize past greats.

The inaugural class consisted of quarterback Steve Bartkowski, running back William Andrews and linebackers Tommy Nobis and Jessie Tuggle. In 2006, center Jeff Van Note was inducted. Offensive tackle Mike Kenn and defensive end Claude Humphrey followed in 2008. Cornerback Deion Sanders was the sole inductee in 2010, and finally in 2013, running back Gerald Riggs was inducted into the Ring. Nobis, the first-ever Falcon and known as “Mr. Falcon,” was the second-ever linebacker to be chosen first overall when he was selected in the 1966 NFL Draft. In his rookie season, the 6-foot2, 240-pounder won Rookie of the Year and was voted to the Pro Bowl.

THE ARRIVAL OF BART As the No. 1 overall pick in the 1975 NFL Draft out of the University of California, Bartkowski made a quick impact on the organization. The 6-foot-4, 213-pound quarterback is one of 10 quarterbacks in NFL history to have consecutive 30-touchdown passing seasons, accomplishing the feat in 1980-81. He was selected to the Pro Bowl in both of those years and led the NFL in passing in 1983 with a passer rating of 97.6. Bartkowski set the NFL record for consecutive games with at least three touchdown passes at home with five in the 1980 and 1981 seasons. The record stood until the 2004 season when it was broken by Peyton Manning. Tuggle came to the Falcons in 1987 after going undrafted out of Valdosta State. The Griffin, Ga., native, who became known as “ The Hammer,” would go on to become the Falcons’ career tackle leader with 2,065

during his 209-game tenure. Tuggle compiled 12 straight 100-tackle seasons and led his team in tackles in a season 10 times, amassing 20 or more tackles in a single game on four occasions with a personal best of 24. Tuggle was selected to five Pro Bowls (1992, ‘95-98). Before retiring, Tuggle played in three decades for the Falcons, from 1987 to 2000. Andrews, a native of Thomasville, Ga., was selected by the Falcons in the third round of the 1979 NFL Draft. A prolific runner, Andrews had his career cut short by a knee injury in the 1984 preseason that kept him out for two seasons, but he had already made a serious impact in the league. In his first five seasons, Andrews outran every other back in the NFL. He totaled 8,384 total yards through 1979-83, an average of 1,677 per year. In his first NFL game, he rushed for 167 yards, a Falcons record. Andrews was selected to the Pro Bowl every year from 1980-83 before retiring in 1987. Hall of Fame defensive back

Ronnie Lott, known for bone-crushing tackles, stated that an attempt to tackle Andrews in a game on Dec. 19, 1982, was the hardest collision he experienced in his NFL career.

ATLANTA FALCONS

RING OF HONOR INDUCTEES

Jeff Van Note, a five-time Pro Bowler, played the most seasons (18) and most consecutive games (155) in Falcons history. He missed only four games in his NFL career. With the 13th overall pick of the 1978 NFL Draft, the Falcons selected Mike Kenn out of the University of Michigan. Kenn started all 16 games that season at left tackle, garnering NFL All-Rookie team honors. In the 1980 season, Kenn was voted All-Pro and was not flagged for a penalty all season, allowing just 3.5 sacks. Kenn holds the Falcons record for most games played and started (251) while being second in most seasons played as a Falcon (17). He earned Pro Bowl selections from 1980-84. In 2010, Deion Sanders was elected to the Ring. Sanders, a star at Florida State, was selected as the fifth overall pick in the 1989 NFL Draft. In his first game as a rookie, Sanders returned a punt 68 yards for a touchdown against the Los Angeles Rams at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium, setting the tone for things to come. Throughout his illustrious career, he was considered one of the best cornerbacks to ever put on a uniform. Recently, he was named the 34th-best player in the history of the NFL by NFL Films feature The Top 100: NFL’s Greatest Players. “Prime Time,” as he would be called, set or tied many Falcons records including most interceptions for touchdowns (3), longest punt return (79 yds), most punt return touchdowns (2) and most combined touchdowns on interception and punt/kick returns (8). Gerald Riggs, who was drafted ninth overall in the 1982 NFL Draft out of Arizona State, was elected into the Ring in 2013. Riggs played in Atlanta from 1982-88 and was selected to the Pro Bowl three times, 198587. He finished his career as the Falcons’ all-time rushing leader with 6,631 yards. An explosive runner, he is second in team history with 48 rushing touchdowns, which is also fifth in overall touchdowns. He retired in 1991.
