This should be interesting.
You’ve probably been waiting for news about Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins and we have some for you today, although it’s likely not the news you were hoping for (yet).
It’s been announced that Kirk Cousins, along with Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff and Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, will appear in season 2 of Netflix’s popular series, “Quarterback.”

If you’re unfamiliar with the series, it essentially gives fans a behind-the-scenes look at three NFL quarterbacks on and off the field. Season 1, which debuted in 2023 and covered the 2022 NFL season followed around Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, then Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins, and at the time, Falcons quarterback Marcus Mariota. What made that season interesting for Falcons fans is it gave us some extra context on the situation with Mariota as he was eventually benched for Desmond Ridder.
What will be interesting for Falcons fans is we are again facing a similar situation. The season will cover Kirk Cousins debut in Atlanta, after signing a hefty four-year, $180 million contract, his injuries perhaps, and his eventual benching in favor of rookie quarterback Michael Penix, Jr. — a remarkably similar storyline to Mariota’s last season.
As of posting, there is no official release date given — just that it will debut in July 2025.
