Atlanta Falcons to hire Zac Robinson, former Oklahoma State QB, as offensive coordinator
The Atlanta Falcons are expected to hire Los Angeles Rams quarterbacks coach/passing-game coordinator Zac Robinson as offensive coordinator, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reported on Saturday evening.
Robinson, a 37-year-old former Oklahoma State quarterback, joined the Rams coaching staff in 2019 as an assistant quarterbacks coach. In 2022, the team promoted Robinson to passing-game coordinator/quarterbacks coach.
Since Morris spent the last three seasons in Los Angeles working with Robinson, the pairing makes a lot of sense.

Robinson played in 35 games for OSU from 2006-09, going 610-for-999 passing for 8,317 yards and 66 touchdowns.
