After missing Wednesday’s practice entirely due to illness, London returned as a limited participant on Thursday. However, the team’s updated injury report listed […]

Many eyebrows were raised when the Atlanta Falcons drafted Michael Penix Jr. as the eighth overall pick in last year’s draft. Experts deemed him a second-round prospect, but the Falcons rolled the dice and took a chance on the young quarterback.

The Atlanta Falcons have an incredibly expensive backup quarterback in Kirk Cousins.

Michael Penix Jr. sitting out of the Atlanta Falcons’ Week 8 game against the Miami Dolphins gave Kirk Cousins another shot at redemption.

The Atlanta Falcons will be shorthanded for Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins. Falcons WR Drake London popped up on the injury report on Saturday with a hip injury.
