Falcons Hire Eagles' Scott as Assistant GM

On April 1st, the Atlanta Falcons just locked in their new assistant general manager.

Jeff Scott is coming over from the Philadelphia Eagles where he's been vice president of football operations.

This fills the gap left by recent moves, giving GM and Cunningham a trusted right hand man they worked with briefly before.

Scott climbed fast and Philly, starting as a senior scout back in 2021.

Then hitting director of football operations in 2022, and his current gig this year.

Before that, he put in nearly a decade with Washington, wrapping up as assistant director of Pro Scouting.

Eagles fans might feel this thing here, as Philly's lost four top executives this off season, all snagged for assistant GM spots elsewhere.

That speaks volumes about their personnel crew, being one of the league's best talent factories.

What stands out is Scott's deep roots in Pro Scouting and operations, making him a perfect fit for Cunningham's vision.

Their paths crossed in 2021 when Cunningham ran player personnel in Philadelphia.

Falcons front office is shaping up strong, and Scott's arrival could spark some real moves this season.

Keep an eye on Atlanta's rebuild.

That wraps NFL news today.
