Hey Ryan! In the version on the repo, there currently is not a way to handle that, but since you asked, I looked into it and have added a filter to the version under development, if you want to try it. It should be stable, but I would try it on a development site first.
Because it’s not a featured I think everyone would want, you need to add a filter to your functions.php file or a site functionality plugin. The filter is:
add_filter( 'display_featured_image_genesis_excerpt_show_front_page_title', '__return_true' );
Note: this filter only takes effect if you have the plugin set to move the excerpts to overlay the featured image (which is the use case I understood you to be asking about, right?).
You can expect this will be in the next released version of the plugin. Hope that helps!
