Atlanta Falcons quarterback Tua Tagovailoa doubtful for Week 2 game against Carolina Panthers due to oblique injury

Tua Tagovailoa, quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers due to an oblique injury from practice last week. He missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday, while Cooper Rush and Michael Penix Jr. took first-team reps. Rush started the Week 1 loss to the Steelers, completing 12 of 22 passes for 143 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions. The Falcons have four quarterbacks, including Penix, who is recovering from an ACL injury. Despite preseason struggles, the team has no immediate plans to release Tagovailoa, but may trade him before the deadline.
