The first few drives for the Falcons offense ended quickly. After going three-and-out to start the game, Atlanta followed that up with a fumble by wide receiver Chris Blair. Neither drive allowed rookie quarterback Michael Penix to get into a rhythm. That would change on the second drive, though.
Penix showed confidence in his receiver by going back to Blair and connecting on a 41-yard catch and run down the sideline. Catch out the highlight below, as by the NFL’s official Twitter account:
Penix makes the connection downfield!
