Fantasy Life Articles on Michael Penix Jr.

Penix expected to eventually start; aggressive downfield passer (8th in 20+ yard %).

The Falcons apparently eventually want Michael Penix to start, though it remains to be seen if that will happen early in the year as he recovers from a torn ACL. Penix is aggressive and wants to throw the ball down the field; he ranks eighth in percentage of passes of 20-plus yards since entering the NFL in 2024 (14.2%) and fourth in passes of 15-plus yards (24.9%), suggesting a downfield-oriented passing approach that could benefit receivers.
