The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that if Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez retires as expected, the team could elect to go with Chase Coffman as a pass-catching tight end. A prospective unrestricted free agent, Coffman had a spectacular 16-yard catch against Seattle in the playoffs and could possibly salvage his career. “Chase is a very good receiving tight end, and he continues to grow and learn as he receives very good coaching,” general manager Thomas Dimitroff said. “If Chase can … stay healthy, I think Chase has a very nice chance of being a quality football player in this league.”
