Beyond thrilled to announce I’m the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s new Falcons beat writer.
It’s a true blessing, and a privilege I don’t take lightly. The @ajc has always been the standard and the dream.
Let’s roll. AGTG.

- A few Michael Penix Jr. passes into your living room:
00:00 - Kirk Cousins & Michael Penix Jr. working the same route concept to the same side:
00:00 - Kirk Cousins said he felt the Falcons vs. Saints rivalry during swag surfing: “They’re playing that song about the swag, the surf … I was like, ‘This is pretty sweet.’”
- Funny note from Curt Cignetti tonight at his radio show: Maryland’s long snapper, Ethan Gough, dates Cignetti’s niece. “Now, they are not engaged, but things — both summers when I’ve gone back to Pittsburgh, he’s been in the house.” 🎥: IU Athletics. #iufb
00:00 - Loud applause for Michael Penix Jr. — this is his first time getting the tunnel intro treatment as a pro.
00:00 - Raheem Morris on Atlanta being closer to contention than one might think: “If we had better quarterback play I may not be standing here at the podium.”
- Curt Cignetti’s sign-off from his radio show tonight: “The one thing I enjoy the most is seeing the fans’ response to our success and the way we have packed the stadium. “There’s a lot of Hoosier fans, and they’re growing.” #iufb 🎥: IU Athletics
00:00 - A.J. Terrell vs. Darnell Mooney — starter vs. starter. Competitive rep.
00:00 - Troy Andersen, in his first NFL start, was the Falcons’ leading tackler with 13.
- Michael Penix Jr. proposed to his now-fiancée Olivia on Christmas Eve. Been a life-changing couple of weeks for Penix. 📸IG: o.carter & themp9
- Raheem Morris, asked about A.J. Terrell's first interception since Week 17 of 2021: "A.J. couldn't get interceptions until I came back." Arthur Blank erupted in laughter from the back of the room.
- Scott Dolson fired up. Emotional embraces with Pat Coogan and Elijah Sarratt. #iufb
00:00 - Charlie Becker: “Fernando is probably the best quarterback in college football.” #iufb
