Falcons QB Battle Delayed Until Penix Cleared

Currently, Tua Tagovailoa is taking all first-team snaps while Penix, recovering from an ACL tear, is limited to individual drills and 7-on-7 work. "It's tough to have a competition when both guys aren't competing at the same level right now," Van Pelt said.

Coach Kevin Stefanski hasn't provided a timetable for Penix's return. "We split the reps as evenly as we can without Mike taking team reps," Van Pelt added. "It gets a little lopsided toward Tua." catcross.biz
