Video: Dan Quinn talks of his admiration for Kobe Bryant

One thing about Falcons head coach Dan Quinn that’s been the same since he was hired five years ago is his appreciation for competition in sports.

Like the rest of us, Quinn was saddened to learn of NBA legend Kobe Bryant’s tragic death last month. Talking with NFL Network about watching Bryant’s memorial, Quinn spoke of his appreciation for the five-time champion, who embodied hard work and was never afraid to try and be the best.

“You recognize what it looked like for somebody to go for it at the highest level,” said Quinn. “I think he lived it, demonstrated it, and people saw it.”

Watch the interview below, as shared by the team’s Twitter account:
