The Atlanta Falcons have turned to rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. during a challenging game against the Denver Broncos, signaling his development and future potential.
With the game beyond reach at 38-6, the Falcons are giving Penix valuable experience in the NFL, planning for him to succeed veteran Kirk Cousins.
Penix, who was drafted No. 8 overall in 2024, made his NFL debut earlier this season, throwing for 14 yards on a single attempt.
The coaching staff’s decision to play Penix in a tough situation underscores their commitment to his growth despite the Falcons’ struggles this season.
