This Sunday’s prime-time matchup between the Atlanta Falcons and the Washington Commanders has no shortage of storylines. Not only will the Falcons face off against former head coach Dan Quinn, but rookies Michael Penix Jr. and Jayden Daniels are set to make NFL history.

Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels seems to make history. On Sunday, Daniels and the Commanders will host the Atlanta Falcons, and he will make more history. According to NBC Sports,

The Atlanta Falcons reclaimed the NFC South lead this weekend, defeating the New York Giants by a score of 34-7. Michael Penix Jr. impressed in his first real NFL action, becoming just the third Falcons rookie quarterback ever to win his first start.

Rookie Michael Penix Jr. made his first NFL start in place of Kirk Cousins, and it's fair to wonder if Cousins will play another meaningful snap for Atlanta.

Penix finished 18-for-27 for 202 yards, no touchdowns and a deflected interception. Two pick sixes by the defense helped a lot.

Falcons rookie Michael Penix Jr. has patiently waited for his opportunity while the other quarterbacks in this year’s draft class have received all the headlines this season.
