Many eyebrows were raised when the Atlanta Falcons drafted Michael Penix Jr . as the eighth overall pick in last year's draft. Experts deemed him a second-round prospect, but the Falcons rolled the dice and took a chance on the young quarterback.
Penix only played five games last season as the backup of Kirk Cousins. While he has seen more opportunities in his second season after taking over the starting spot, Penix has yet to fully deliver . The Falcons lost their fourth straight game on Sunday after bowing to the Indianapolis Colts, 31-25. They fell to 3-5.
Sports commentator Colin Cowherd discussed the young signal-callers in the NFL and who among them deserves to be given a lucrative extension. For Cowherd, the Falcons should think twice about paying the 25-year-old Penix.
