Given that recent history and what Morris did in 2024, it’s no great surprise to learn Michael Penix and Kirk Cousins will not be taking the field on Friday for the team’s preseason opener against the Detroit Lions.

"Penix won’t get out there, Kirk won’t get out there ," Morris said in his Monday press conference. "So, we’ll see [Easton] Stick, we’ll see Emory [Jones]. That’s probably the most definitive thing I can tell you right now. There will be a lot of guys playing, and there will be a couple that won’t."
