Penix Back on Track for Week One | Atlanta Falcons News
from Atlanta Falcons News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Michael Penix Jr. is sitting out the final preseason game against the Miami Dolphins, but he’s back at full-team practices and feeling strong — coaches agree it’s too soon to rush him into a game. After just three full practices, Penix says playing now would feel rushed, but he’s confident he’ll be ready for Week One if he stays on track. His ACL surgery this time focused on building a stronger knee, which meant a longer recovery — but he’s pushing through with energy and determination. Coach Stefanski praised his return, calling it a pivotal week as Penix reconnected with both offense and defense, making solid throws and moving well in the pocket. The team is also ramping up like a real game week, running play cards and scout teams — Stefanski was impressed with how smoothly everything flowed, underscoring their focus on preparation ahead of the regular season.
