Why did the Falcons bench Kirk Cousins? + What’s the fallout from The Athletic’s scoop on Jets dysfunction? + Buffalo WR Khalil Shakir
1Description
The Falcons announced this week that they’re benching Kirk Cousins in favor of Michael Penix Jr., the quarterback they took in the first round of the draft. Dianna Russini and Chase Daniel share what they know about why the team’s doing this so late in the season and where their relationship with Cousins, who they made a big move to get last offseason, goes from here. Dianna and Chase also measure the fallout of The Athletic’s recent piece on Woody Johnson, which reported that he once vetoed a trade over a player’s rating in a video game, and they weigh the choices the Patriots are facing this offseason as they seek to turn around their team. Plus, Bills WR Khalil Shakir stops by to talk about what’s making Buffalo’s offense go this season and dish out some scoops on how Josh Allen has weaponized this unit of pass catchers so effectively.
