- Roddy White describes Falcons' young core in three words
Atlanta Falcons president of football Matt Ryan wasn't the only franchise legend present at OTAs over the last few weeks. Former Falcons wide receiver Roddy White was spotted alongside Ryan at the team's Flowery Branch training facility.
Obviously, White knows what it takes to be successful in Atlanta. After all, he did spend his entire 11-year NFL career with the Falcons, recording 10,863 receiving yards (second in franchise history) and 63 touchdowns over 171 games.

White seems to be having fun hanging around his old stomping grounds with his old teammate. He's also taken notice of the Falcons' young core, calling the group "so damn good" on his social media account Friday.

Could White be in line for a front office or coaching role? We wouldn't rule it out, especially now that Ryan is essentially running the show. And honestly, it's not a bad idea.
The Detroit Lions -- along with other franchises -- have hired former players without coaching experience to their staff in recent years. If you really think about it, playing in the NFL should count for something.
