Penix is competing for the starting QB role next season. He mainly served as the backup to Kirk Cousins in his rookie campaign in 2024.

There are also suggestions that Atlanta might trade Cousins this offseason, which could open the door for Penix to be named QB1.

Penix completed 61 of 105 passes for 775 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions. He also rushed for one touchdown on seven attempts across five games.

Earlier this week, Penix spoke about his relationship with Falcons coach Matt Ryan.

"I spoke with Matt Ryan," Penix said on Wednesday, via Falcons Wire. "Just learning how to be a pro each and every day, and how his process went. How he went about his business each and every day. I feel like he definitely gave me a lot of good things."

It will be interesting to see if Penix gets more opportunities to show his worth in his second season in Atlanta.
