The Atlanta Falcons have some pressing decisions on their hands this offseason, but none more pivotal than who will be starting at quarterback next season. It's no guarantee that Michael Penix Jr. is ready to go in Week 1 and the rumor mill surrounding Kirk Cousins' future won't slow down any time soon.
Penix is in the midst of rehabbing his third ACL tear since the start of his college career, so the Falcons know they have to add reinforcements this offseason, especially if Cousins is cut. And financially, moving on from an aging veteran is certainly the correct decision to prioritize the future.
