Jack Strand (healthy scratch) is inactive for Thursday Night against the Packers.
Fantasy Impact
Strand had a chance to show his stuff in the Falcons' loss to the Panthers, and his stuff wasn't great. Don't count on him to have many more appearances this season, and if he does, Atlanta players will be nigh unstartable.
Jack Strand completed 8 of 15 passes for 59 yards with a pick-six and a fumble in the Falcons' 34-3 loss to the Panthers on Sunday. He also ran twice for 16 yards.
Fantasy Impact
Strand got off to a rocky start with a pick-six three plays after he came in relief duty for the benched Cooper Rush. It will be tough to trust Strand or Rush at any point moving forward if the offense needs to rely on them.
Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski said Jack Strand will be the backup quarterback again on Sunday against the Panthers.
Fantasy Impact
It will be Cooper Rush drawing another start with Michael Penix Jr. ruled out and Tua Tagovailoa listed as doubtful.
Jack Strand will enter Sunday's season opener for the Falcons as the backup quarterback.
Fantasy Impact
Tua Tagovailoa was ruled out with an oblique injury. Cooper Rush will get the start as a result.

Fantasy Impact
Strand continues to work with the starters as Michael Penix Jr. and Tua Tagovailoa ease their way back from injuries. Penix took reps in 7-on-7 drills on Friday.
