Man, I just love seeing stuff like this: Kirk Cousins not only stepping aside to watch rookie Michael Penix Jr. start in his place, but leading the young man in prayer before the game and giving him a nice little pep talk.

Cousins was brought in this year to lead a young Falcons offense, but without a playoff berth in reach, it was time to hand it over to the rookie.

And the University of Washington star did not disappoint.

Penix would go 18/27 (67%) for 202 yards and an interception that should’ve been a touchdown but was dropped.

His running back and his defense would score two touchdowns apiece, and the Falcons would win the game, 34-7.

After the game, Penix gave all the glory to God.

Looking forward to seeing what Penix can do in 2025, should the Falcons part ways with veteran Kirk Cousins.
