NFL 2025 Week 8 early inactives: Michael Penix, Drake London are out for the Falcons

A report on Saturday indicated that Falcons quarterback Michael Penix would miss Sunday's game against the Dolphins because of a knee injury and the Falcons made it official 90 minutes ahead of kickoff in Atlanta. Penix is inactive for the game and Kirk Cousins will make the start for the Falcons. It will be Cousins' first start since he was benched in favor of Penix after Week 15 of the 2024 season. Easton Stick is active as the No. 2 quarterback. The Falcons are also going to be without wide receiver Drake London. London had no injury designation on Friday, but was downgraded to questionable with a hip injury on Saturday.
