The Atlanta Falcons plan to stick with Kirk Cousins as their starting quarterback despite his struggles over the team’s three-game losing streak, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Cousins has accounted for zero touchdown throws and six interceptions over this stretch. But Atlanta is sticking with their original plan at quarterback and have not considered the idea of switching in rookie Michael Penix.
