Kirk Cousins is currently leading the Atlanta Falcons, serving as the starting quarterback for the NFC team.
The Falcons came into the season with high expectations behind quarterback Michael Penix and several stars on the offensive end, like Drake London and Bijan Robinson.

After Penix went down with a season-ending injury, all eyes were on Cousins to serve as a resurgence for the Falcons.
Early in the Week 15 slate, Cousins led the Falcons to a win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After being down double-digits in the fourth quarter, Atlanta was able to pick up a 29-28 victory.
While the attention for many teams has already turned toward Week 15, the NFL announced its final decisions on fines from the previous week.
The Falcons hosted the Seattle Seahawks in Week 14. In that game, Seahawks defensive end Mike Morris was fined for a late hit on the quarterback. He picked up a fine of $6,170 for hitting Cousins in the 37-9 win over the Falcons.
