FLOWERY BRANCH — The Falcons are set to open their mandatory minicamp Tuesday and it will run through Thursday.
The big question is whether backup quarterback Kirk Cousins will attend. He could be fined for not attending, at the team’s discretion.
The Falcons could waive the fines and allow Cousins to miss the workouts.
Cousins was demoted to backup quarterback last season. He let the team know that he’d like to be traded to a team that would give him a chance to start.
The Falcons have not found a deal for Cousins. General manager Terry Fontenot has repeatedly said they plan to do what was best for the franchise.
