The Falcons Didn't Tell Kirk Cousins They Were Drafting Michael Penix Until They Were on the Clock

Listen, for whatever you want to say about the Falcons drafting a 24-year-old quarterback with an extensive injury history No. 8 overall before the free agent quarterback they signed to a $180 million contract a month ago has taken a snap, at least they also didn't tell him about it until two minutes before it happened.

I demand to know who is responsible for this. Someone went rogue in the war room and we deserve to know if it was Terry Fontenot or Arthur Blank. And whichever one it was should get their ass chewed out by Kirk Cousins, though he's far too good of a man to do it. I hope he his agent is inventing new cuss words to use in his conversations with the front office tonight, though.

I still can't believe they did this. They really drafted the sixth-best QB in the draft No. 8 overall after signing Cousins for $45 million a year. How does it always get worse?
