Kirk Cousins' high-profile presence in the Atlanta Falcons' quarterback room raises questions about team dynamics as Michael Penix Jr. steps into the starting role. Falcons owner Arthur Blank acknowledges Cousins' professional demeanor but hints at potential trade scenarios, especially with the Cleveland Browns. With a massive contract, Cousins represents both a significant investment and a safety net for the franchise. Despite a rocky previous season, Blank's faith in Cousins remains, suggesting he could be an essential asset, even as the team transitions to a new starter. The dilemma lies in balancing respect for Cousins' stature with the need for a viable backup plan in a league where quarterbacks often face injury risks.
