From the moment the Atlanta Falcons began looking for a new general manager, many Chicago Bears expected to lose one of their front-office members. That has become a reality.
Sources tell ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter that the Falcons are hiring Chicago Bears assistant general manager Ian Cunningham to be the general manager. Cunningham had spent the last four years with the Bears as general manager Ryan Poles' right-hand man.
Atlanta and Cunningham felt like a match made in Heaven, especially the moment that Matt Ryan was hired as the president of football.
