Penix Jr.'s ACL recovery timeline delays his takeover, but he's positioned as long-term starter threat.

Michael Penix Jr. will return at some point and possesses the attributes and intangibles desired in a quarterback, making it hard to imagine him being completely disregarded. His return timeline is extended due to a devastating ACL injury from November, but the source indicates he will be a competitive threat to Tua Tagovailoa's starting role. If Tagovailoa struggles or fails to regain his 2023 Pro Bowl form, pressure will mount for Penix Jr. to take over the field.
