Kirk Cousins QB ATL

Kirk Cousins Benched, Michael Penix In

Kirk Cousins Benched, Michael Penix In

The Falcons are benching QB Kirk Cousins and going to QB Michael Penix, according to both NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and ESPN's Adam Schefter. Atlanta stuck with Cousins for too long, losing four of the last five and falling out of first place in the NFC South. They beat the Raiders on Monday night in spite of Cousins, who completed just 11 of 17 passes for 112 yards, one TD, and one INT. Penix obviously lacks Cousins' experience but should prove to be a big upgrade in terms of arm talent. We'd still expect the Falcons to be a run-heavy offense going forward, especially as big favorites over the Giants this weekend.

Falcons WR Drake London had 10 targets against the Vikings, but was only able to haul in 70 yards. He also didn’t find the end zone for the fourth game in a row. His teammates had better fantasy days with Darnell Mooney catching six of seven targets for 142 yards while Ray-Ray McCloud caught eight of 11 targets for 98 yards.

Falcons TE Kyle Pitts was held without a catch in Sunday’s loss to the Chargers. He's now been held to 1 or fewer catches in three of his past four games.

Falcons WR Darnell Mooney (Achilles) was left off the final Week 13 injury report. He was limited on Wednesday, a full-go on Thursday, and then took a rest day on Friday. Barring further updates, expect Mooney to play his usual role against the Chargers on Sunday.

Falcons WR Darnell Mooney (Achilles) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He suffered a hamstring injury prior to Atlanta's Week 12 bye, but that isn't listed on this week's injury report. This Achilles was on the Week 11 injury report but didn't keep Mooney from playing. We're expecting him to play against the Chargers this weekend but will track his status over the next few days.
