What happened: Rush handled the majority of routes-on-air throws with Atlanta's starters on Friday. Another Falcons quarterback worked with practice squad receivers during the same drill, matching the setup from a week earlier.

Why it matters: The rotation keeps Atlanta's quarterback picture pointed the same way after Cooper Rush opened Week 1 as Atlanta's starter. Repeating the same split from last Friday suggests the staff has not changed its early practice pecking order.

What to watch: The next full-team periods and Atlanta's final practice report will show whether the first-team workload stays with Rush heading into the weekend.
