        Michael Penix Jr. Done for Season with Yet Another Knee Repair

        Michael Penix Jr. Done for Season with Yet Another Knee Repair

        The Falcons announced Wednesday that QB Michael Penix Jr. will miss the rest of the season after further evaluation determined that he needs surgery. Penix partially tore his left ACL. That officially puts the offense under Kirk Cousins' control the rest of the way, with Easton Stick the likely backup.

        The knee injury that knocked QB Michael Penix Jr. out of Sunday's loss to the Panthers might end his season, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Atlanta announced after this initial posting that Penix is headed to IR, meaning he'll miss at least four games. The Falcons already sit 3-7, so it's tough to imagine bringing Penix back in a month making much sense.

        The Falcons believe QB Michael Penix Jr. aggravated the bone bruise in his left knee Sunday that cost him a game earlier this season, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
