Falcons: Will they announce Coach Nolan's contract details?

[monoxide]

I know they never released contract details for Koetter, so I didn't know if/when Nolan's will ever be released. I'd be interested in seeing how many years he's signed up for, and how much money he will be making compared to other D-coordinators.

Doubtful. Don't think we even got money details on Smitty's extension, and his original contract details were pretty shady.

And the length of Nolan's contract doesn't matter, as he would likely only leave Atlanta for a head coach job, which a contract would not prevent. Might as well be for 50 years.

Pretty sure he wasn't cheap, but I don't think teams have to file any information with the league about coaches contracts.

yeah, I know some contracts run out though and that can usually be a factor for coordinators to leave. Thanks for the 411 though.
