Fantasy Impact:
Cousins signed a massive contract with Atlanta in the 2024 offseason but was benched late in the season for rookie QB Michael Penix Jr. After rumors that Cousins could be on his way out, he remains with the Falcons heading into the 2025 season despite several off-handed comments. He will remain sidelined for now as the team's QB2, and veteran quarterback Easton Stick is expected to be involved in the opener.
