Key twists:

– Weidl isn’t a household name for every fan, but Steelers insiders say losing him would be a major blow to the front office. He’s been a respected evaluator for the organization since May 2022.
Takeaway:
– It’s a high-stakes, competitive hiring cycle for Atlanta, and the Steelers would feel the impact if Weidl leaves. Stay tuned as the Falcons press their GM search. 📊🔥🏈
