The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported on its Web site that Falcons officials said Petrino phoned in his resignation at about 5:45 p.m. EST Tuesday. He reportedly will not coach the Falcons' remaining three games.
"Bobby Petrino today submitted his resignation as head coach of the Atlanta Falcons," the Falcons' Web site said. "The Falcons will have no further comment until their news conference set for 2 p.m. on Wednesday at the club's Flowery Branch headquarters."
Various media outlets have said Petrino's Falcons contract does not include a buyout clause.
Petrino signed a five-year, $24 million deal with Atlanta in January. His deal with Arkansas, ESPN reported, would be for about $3 million per season.
