I apologized the past couple of weeks for some really dry, boring rookie reports for our Atlanta Falcons, caused by the team refusing to play said rookies. That changed this week, and it gave us something to talk about.
Ruke Orhorhoro made his season debut, JD Bertrand made his first NFL start, and Casey Washington got a little special teams work. Baby steps, maybe, but the Falcons are getting their 2024 draft class involved, and there were some real positive moments from Thursday night’s game.
QB Michael Penix
With Cousins throwing for over 500 yards, I don’t think people are going to be clamoring for Penix in the near future.
