Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot claims benched quarterback Kirk Cousins could stick around Atlanta as a high-paid backup next season.
Fontenot said Thursday the franchise has no plan to release Cousins before his $10 million roster guarantee five days into the start of the new league year March 12, which had been widely reported in the aftermath of Atlanta benching Cousins and turning to Michael Penix Jr. for the final three games of the regular season.
