The Atlanta Falcons declined to play their top two quarterbacks, Michael Penix Jr. and Kirk Cousins, in their preseason opener. That meant free agent signing Easton Stick would get thrown in the fire as the first half's signal caller.
To say he performed well would be an understatement; he was fabulous. Not only was he efficient, but he was also accurate and easily navigated the constant chaos behind a shaky backup offensive line.
Now, the decision makers are left with a tough decision when they go to finalize the 53-man roster at the end of the month.
