Super Bowl-winning quarterback explains why Falcons drafting Michael Penix Jr was 'brilliant'

Of all the teams inside the top-15 of the NFL Draft order, the Atlanta Falcons were certainly one that not many people were predicting would pick a quarterback.

Well, they shocked just about everybody when they selected Michael Penix Jr. out of Washington with the eighth overall pick.

Of course, the Falcons entered the offseason with a hole at quarterback, but they gave Kirk Cousins a four-year deal with $180 million – $100 million of that is guaranteed, but all in the first two years.
