Falcons' Michael Penix: Remains backup for Week 15
Head coach Raheem Morris said Monday that Penix will remain the backup to starting quarterback Kirk Cousins for Week 15, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports. "Kirk is our quarterback. Kirk is still going to lead us," Morris said.
Atlanta has dropped four straight games to fall out of the lead in the NFC South at 6-7, and Cousins' struggles have led to a discussion about a change under center. In those four losses, the veteran QB completed just 62.4 percent of his passes for 7.6 yards per attempt and a 0:8 TD:INT while also taking eight sacks. Cousins' track record and sizable contract may not be enough to save him if he has another poor showing against a reeling Raiders squad Monday. Penix, the eighth overall pick in April's draft, has made just two brief mop-up appearances through the first 14 weeks of the regular season but looked composed during his lone preseason outing, completing nine of 16 pass attempts for 104 yards.

Falcons coach Raheem Morris was emphatic that he would not swap in Penix for the struggling Kirk Cousins, Jay Glazer from Fox NFL Sunday reports.
Peter Schrager earlier reported that Penix didn't take any snaps with the starting offense in practice this week, instead exclusively working with the scout team.

Falcons' Michael Penix: Throws first regular-season pass
Penix completed his only pass attempt for 14 yards during Sunday's 34-14 loss to the Seahawks.
With the game out of hand, Penix made his NFL regular-season debut. He played seven offensive snaps and completed his only pass to fellow rookie Casey Washington. Despite Sunday's dud, Kirk Cousins has fully shaken off the early-season rust and revitalized Atlanta's offense, so Penix is relegated to backup duties for the foreseeable future.
