Falcons GM Terry Fontenot says he’s perfectly comfortable with Kirk Cousins being a $100-million backup QB in ‘25

The major difference here is that Kirk played his way out of the job. Carr was better than Rattler this season so he shouldn’t lose his job just because he got hurt. It should be a true open competition, not just giving the job to Rattler because he is younger.
I agree, that is what I think is that if he gets the starting job, it is because he earned it and that will be the case I imagine. A new coach is going to be very cautious as to who he starts especially with the situation we are in. Younger should never be the reason or injury (unless the person coming in a Brady or Brees and it is undeniable that they need to start) and for the most part it has been that way.
