Ex-ESPN star battles on social media after saying Falcons fans she knows are quizzical of head coach hire

Stefanski was hired to replace Raheem Morris, who only lasted two seasons as the team's head coach. Morris was previously the defensive coordinator for the Los Angeles Rams and Falcons. He also had a stint as head coach with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Hill clarified her comment about the Stefanski hire.

"Because some of you misunderstood: ATL fans I know aren't saying Deion should be the coach over Stefanski. They are saying they don't trust Stefanski because they don't like how he treated Shedeur. They loved Deion. They love Shedeur by extension," she added.

Hill added that "people feel this way" and that, in her opinion, Falcons fans should give Stefanski an opportunity to prove himself.

"But the reaction to the hire is mixed at best because of the reasons I stated," she wrote.

Hill's assessment faced backlash on X.

Stefanski was able to get a lot out of the Browns organization, ending the franchise's playoff win drought in 2020. He's a two-time Coach of the Year and 45-56 overall.
