## Resource

The NFL regular season has finally arrived this week, and with it the Falcons have named their starting quarterback to face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Tua Tagovailoa. However, it wasn't exactly a ringing endorsement of the former Dolphins signal-caller from Head Coach Kevin Stefanski. Michael Penix later revealed he does not yet feel ready to play. Today we break down what was said by Stefanski and Penix and what it means for the entirety of the quarterback room.
