Falcons Host QB Haynes King for Top-30 Visit

He's the guy who got fired as head coach by the Bears and then flopped as defensive coordinator for the Dallas Cowboys after just one mess season. At the NFL Annual Meeting in Arizona, head coach Kyle Shanahan cleared it up, saying Iberflus brings serious value to their defense. Shanahan compared it to what Gus Bradley did last year, bringing in a vet who's called plays and built defenses before. That lets the staff bounce big picture ideas without getting stuck in position, group silos.

After missing out on free agent John Franklin Myers, this pivot made perfect sense thanks to Iberflus' connections. As the regular season ramps up, expect Everflus to keep elevating Morris and the D, turning that initial head scratch into a straight win for the Niners.
