Despite lacking prior experience as a general manager, the Atlanta Falcons hired Ian Cunningham after a lengthy and successful run in NFL front offices across multiple organizations. Cunningham, who joined Andy and Randy on The Midday Show on 92.9 The Game, discussed working alongside several legendary general managers and navigating teams at various stages of development—experiences he believes have fully prepared him to take the reins in Atlanta.
Along the way, Cunningham worked in Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Chicago—three organizations with distinct approaches to team building. From the Ravens’ steady, draft-focused model to the Eagles’ aggressive Super Bowl push and finally a leadership role with the Bears, Cunningham gained experience across every phase of roster construction.
