Michael Penix Jr. injury gives Arthur Blank the perfect reason to keep Raheem Morris

The Atlanta Falcons have been a complete and utter disaster this season, but the last 24 hours have been truly heartbreaking. The 30-27 overtime loss to the Panthers saw Atlanta lose both Michael Penix Jr. and Drake London due to knee injuries, but Penix's own injury was far more concerning.

While London's PCL sprain won't sideline him for very long, thesecond-year quarterback will be placed on IR after re-aggravating both a bone bruise and knee sprain that hampered him earlier this season. And the additional damage to his ACL could keep him on the shelf for the rest of the season.
