The Falcons received some unfortunate injury news on Monday morning, as quarterback Michael Penix Jr. suffered a knee injury that—according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter—could potentially be season-ending.
With his team down 21–16 in the third quarter of what was a 30–27 overtime loss to the Panthers on Sunday afternoon, the 25-year-old landed awkwardly on his left knee following a pass attempt. He left the game, was replaced by backup Kirk Cousins, and did not return.
