Falcons Quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa and Michael Penix Compete Despite Injuries
During training camp, Falcons quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa and Michael Penix are both facing limitations due to injuries, yet they remain in competition for the starting role.
Tagovailoa is managing an injured back while Penix is recovering from a torn ACL sustained last November. Despite these challenges, both players are actively participating in drills, with Tagovailoa emphasizing the competitive nature of their situation.
Tagovailoa reassured that his back issue is not serious and is being handled with caution, indicating that he expects to be fully fit soon. The Falcons are hopeful that at least one of their quarterbacks will be ready for the season opener against the Steelers on September 13.
