The Atlanta Falcons will keep former ESPN reporter Vaughn McClure's seat in the press box at Mercedes-Benz Stadium for the remainder of the season, the team tweeted Sunday.
A passion for his craft and the relationships that he held.

McClure died earlier this month at his home near Atlanta at the age of 48. He had covered the Falcons as part of NFL Nation, including during their run to Super Bowl LI in 2017.
The Falcons are playing their first home game Sunday since McClure's death when they host the Detroit Lions.
