Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said he doesn’t expect Kirk Cousins to attend voluntary OTA workouts according to D. Orlando Ledbetter of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Usurped by Michael Penix as Atlanta’s starter late last season, Cousins, entering his age-37 season, reportedly hopes to be traded after the 2025 NFL Draft. Cousins has a no-trade clause in his Falcons contract, meaning he has a say in where he’s dealt in the coming weeks or months. Though Falcons officials have been cagey about Cousins’ future with the organization, there’s almost no way Cousins remains on the roster headed into the summer.
Penix is widely viewed as the team’s long-term starter. Cousins in 2024 posted the second-lowest touchdown rate of his NFL career and the lowest adjusted yards per attempt of his 13 seasons in the league.
