STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Penix's return offers major upgrade; Falcons averaged 20.5 PPG in his nine starts last year.

Penix returns for Week 3 against Green Bay after being medically cleared weeks ago but not declaring himself ready; in nine starts last season, Falcons averaged 20.5 points per game with Penix at 220 pass yards per game, compared to 16 points and 144 pass yards per game in two games this season with Cooper Rush and Jack Strand; represents a significant upgrade for the offense, though injury history (three career ACL tears) and Falcons' offensive line ranked 23rd in pass protection remain concerns.
