Brutal Michael Penix Jr. injury update all but decided Falcons' QB competition

The biggest burning question about the Atlanta Falcons' offseason has been about when Michael Penix Jr. will return from his torn ACL.
Because the sooner he is cleared for full contact, the sooner the franchise can embark on the new quarterback competition between him and Tua Tagovailoa.
It would be virtually impossible for him to suit up Week 1 if he isn't even cleared for 11-on-11s for another month.
So while Tua Tagovailoa is dealing with a minor back injury, it hasn't changed the inevitable here.
So once we see him return to the field in training camp in the coming days, it won't take long for him to officially put the nail in the coffin in this QB battle.
