"That would be wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator Drew Terrell, who oversaw the surprisingly prolific passing attack in 2025 once Jacoby Brissett took over. Terrell worked with a receiver room that featured breakout star Michael Wilson, second-year Marvin Harrison Jr., and even an effective Greg Dortch while helping to draw up an offense that saw Brissett throw for 23 touchdowns and just eight interceptions in 12 starts and find plenty of ways to feed prolific tight end Trey McBride."
"Terrell, just 34, got his start in the NFL as an offensive quality control coach with the Panthers in 2018. He hopped from there to Washington, where he was an assistant wide receivers coach and then wide receivers coach over three years there. He then joined Jonathan Gannon and Petzing in Arizona as the passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach, where the Cardinals went from 26th in passing yards in 2023 to 18th in 2024 and 7th in 2025."
"Stefanski is likely going to call plays for Atlanta, so a coach who has not called plays but does have experience game planning for a high-octane attack makes sense, as does a coach who can work with what's sure to be a re-built receiver room here. The fact that he has a relationship with Jacoby Brissett, who is an obvious trade target for the Falcons given his prolific 2025, existing ties to Stefanski,"
Drew Terrell is a leading candidate for the Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator opening under new head coach Kevin Stefanski. Terrell served as Arizona’s passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach and helped the Cardinals’ passing attack improve from 26th in 2023 to 7th in 2025. He oversaw the passing surge after Jacoby Brissett became the starter, with Brissett throwing 23 touchdowns and eight interceptions in 12 starts while feeding tight end Trey McBride. Terrell worked with Michael Wilson, Marvin Harrison Jr., and Greg Dortch. He began his NFL career in 2018 and has coaching experience in Carolina, Washington, and Arizona. The Falcons value his game-planning experience and familiarity with Brissett.
