Michael Penix Jr.'s injury timeline will absolutely devastate Falcons fans everywhere The Atlanta Falcons will be without Michael Penix Jr. for the majority of the remainder of the season after placing him on IR.

NOVEMBER 17, 2025 • BLOGGINGDIRTY.COM

Officially placed on IR The Falcons placed Penix (knee) on injured reserve Monday.

Impact "We are working through the medical process to determine the severity of the injury," the Falcons said in a statement Monday. "[Penix] will be placed on the reserve/injured list and miss a minimum of four games. With the move, Kirk Cousins will assume the starting quarterback role for the Falcons at this time." It's been reported that Penix aggravated an existing bone bruise and knee sprain while also suffering damage to his ACL in his left knee, the same knee that Penix has already had the ACL reconstructed twice previously during his college days. Penix won't be eligible to return until Week 16 against the Cardinals at the earliest.

Impact Additionally, according to Rapoport, Penix may need ACL reconstruction, which would obviously end his season and come with a lengthy rehab. However, it sounds like Penix is seeking additional opinions on the injury. With Penix expected to head to injured reserve, Kirk Cousins would be in line to start at least the next four games, and Penix would be ineligible to play before Week 16. The 3-7 Falcons have lost five straight games, and their season is circling the drain quickly. It may already be at the point that bringing Penix back at the end of the season wouldn't be worth it.

Believed to have partially torn ACL Penix is believed to have suffered a season-ending partially torn ACL in Sunday's overtime loss to the Panthers, James Palmer of The Athletic reports.

Impact Things continue to sound ominous for Penix, who was forced to exit Sunday's Week 11 loss to Carolina in the second half with a knee injury. Signs are pointing toward Penix missing the remainder of the 2025 season, though he's currently seeking a second opinion on the injury. Kirk Cousins appears to be in line to start next Sunday against the Saints and potentially beyond. Penix has already torn the ACL in his left knee twice throughout his playing career, dating back to college.
