Biography

Dan Quinn was named the 16th head coach in Atlanta Falcons history in February of 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 teams for years to come.
