Penix not medically cleared; return timetable uncertain but Stefanski expresses confidence.

Not yet medically cleared as of the Falcons' QB depth signing on July 29, 2026. Penix's timetable to return is uncertain; however, Kevin Stefanski emphasized his trust in the medical staff and Penix's approach to rehab and preparation, indicating no long-term concern. Given the injury history of both Penix and Tagovailoa, the Falcons are likely to carry three QBs on the active roster this season.
