FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney has been out since the team's first day of training camp practice on July 24. He injured his shoulder diving for a pass and didn't return.
Falcons coach Raheem Morris has been vague about when Mooney might return. But quarterback Michael Penix Jr. is hopeful his No. 2 wide receiver won't miss any regular-season action.
"Obviously, Mooney, we will have him back coming up in the season," Penix said Wednesday. "I feel like he should be back Week 1. I'm not sure as far as that, I'm not going to talk too much about that.
