The Falcons will open their preseason on Friday night against a foe familiar to Arthur Smith. The Falcons head coach will lead his new team against his old one, a Tennessee Titans franchise where he spent a decade cutting his teeth as an NFL assistant coach.
That might add serious drama to proceedings – as would facing a certain former Falcons receiver now repping different colors – if it weren't the preseason. But it's a game where the score doesn't really matter, so both teams will focus on evaluating those who actually play and staying as healthy as possible.
It's worth getting your first glimpse of Smith running the Falcons, and there are plenty of ways to do it.
