Woerner's first career TD; Bengals answered to tie it 7-7

Wire Report IntelligenceUpdated 1h1 min read

What happened: Michael Penix Jr. threw a touchdown pass to Charlie Woerner on Atlanta's opening drive in Madrid. It was the first career touchdown for Woerner. Joe Burrow answered with a touchdown pass to Ja'Marr Chase, and Cincinnati and Atlanta are tied 7-7.

Why it matters: The score is Penix's first touchdown in the first quarter since Week 9 of 2025. Atlanta was shut out 16-0 at Tampa Bay on Nov. 1, so the opening-drive score was a quick change of pace.

By the numbers: Score: Bengals 7, Falcons 7. Nick Folk and Evan McPherson each have 1 point on extra-point kicks. Atlanta's last game: lost 0-16 at Tampa Bay on Nov. 1.

What to watch: The game is still in progress in Madrid, with the score tied at 7-7.
