Tua Tagovailoa was named the starter for the Falcons in Week 1, which is something now apparently out of necessity more than him "winning" any sort of camp battle. We expect Penix to almost immediately take over under center, once healthy enough to do so.

Tagovailoa starts Week 1 by necessity; Penix expected to take over.

Tagovailoa was named the starter for the Falcons in Week 1 out of necessity due to Michael Penix Jr.'s knee injury rather than winning a camp battle. Penix is expected to take over under center once healthy enough to do so.
