New Falcons head coach Raheem Morris responded humorously to inquiries about the team’s quarterback situation, while Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce hinted at a potential quarterback competition in Las Vegas. Additionally, with Jimmy Garoppolo likely to be released following a suspension, the Raiders are exploring their options to bolster their roster.
