Falcons head coach Mike Smith wrapped up his first Organized Training Activities sessions on Thursday and shaved a three-day minicamp off the summer itinerary.

Smith and the coaching staff are pleased with the team's offseason effort and installation of the offensive, defensive and special team schemes.

"We've talked about what we accomplished and what we've been able to do in our OTAs," Smith said.

As of late Wednesday, the Falcons still had a three-day minicamp later this month listed on their website. But Smith has decided to give the players a break.

"We felt it would be more beneficial for those guys to work in the weight room next week," Smith said.
