falcon057 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 NFC South evening updateFebruary, 13, 2012By Pat YasinskasA couple of quick notes on this Monday evening.The first is not directly related to an NFC South team, but it’s related to an NFC South region and it’s sad news. Freddie Solomon has died after a long illness. Solomon played for the Dolphins and 49ers in the NFL. But he was a big part of the Tampa Bay community. Solomon played at the University of Tampa back when the Spartans had a program. After his NFL career, Solomon lived and was very active in Tampa Bay.The Falcons moved quickly to replace Les Snead after he became general manager of the St. Louis Rams. They stayed inside and promoted two members of their personnel department. David Caldwell has been promoted to director of player personnel. DeJaun Polk was named director of pro scouting. Caldwell spent the team’s last four seasons as director of college scouting. Polk has been a pro scout for the Falcons the past six seasons.
