Everything you need to know about the Atlanta Legends of the AAF

The coach of the Legends is Kevin Coyle, who has never been a head coach. Former Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick was previously announced as offensive coordinator, but the team walked it back. Vick does have a consulting role with the team though.

“We are excited to have Michael as a part of our organization and part of our staff,” Coyle told WSBTV. “He’s had a number of commitments that he’s been fulfilling, Fox and the broadcasting end of things. So he hasn’t been able to be with us full-time as we would have liked him to be. As this NFL season has come to an end, hopefully we are going to be together as we move forward and we are going to carve out the role that he is going to take that’s going to help us the most that he possibly can. It’s a very valuable resource that we have in Michael, and we are going to try to utilize him to the best of his abilities so he can help our players each and every day.”
