kicked off their preseason action against the Miami Dolphins, and despite the 20-13 loss, there were still positives to be had. As expected, the debut of Michael Penix Jr. 2024’s eighth-overall draft pick went as advertised, as he made some nice throws.The 41-yard pass to wide receiver Chris Blair was one of his nine completions on the evening. Penix went 9/16 for 104 yards with zero touchdowns and zero interceptions.
On the flip side of the ball, the Atlanta offensive line could not generate any push in the rushing attack. There were a few bobbles on returns on special teams, and expect those and everything listed above to be worked on in the upcoming week.
