The Falcons listed quarterback Michael Penix (knee) and wide receiver Drake London (hip) as limited in Wednesday's practice. Coach Raheem Morris said both are considered "day-to-day" and are better than they were last week.
Penix was drafted eighth overall in the 2024 NFL Draft. After sitting for 14 games behind veteran Kirk Cousins, Penix was given his first career start in a Week 15 matchup against the New York Giants. Penix has been Atlanta’s starter since.
The Falcons got blown out by the Dolphins with quarterback Michael Penix on the sideline last Sunday and his status will be of chief concern as they move toward their Week 9 trip to New England.
