The biggest stress test for the Minnesota Vikings’ offseason strategy involving Kirk Cousins is about to occur.
The four-time Pro Bowl quarterback, Cousins, will enter free agency and start talks with the Atlanta Falcons. Many in the NFL believe they have established their price point for Cousins’ next contract.
On March 11, The Athletic’s Dianna Russini said on X, formerly Twitter, “Kirk Cousins will hit free agency and begin discussions with Atlanta as soon as the tampering window opens in 90 minutes, per sources.
According to reports, the Falcons are the team most likely to steal Cousins in free agency.
Arthur Blank, the owner of the Falcons, is reportedly smitten with the concept.
“Everything points towards Kirk Cousins—all eyes, all arrows,” stated Zach Klein of WSB on February 29 on “Dukes and Bell” on 92.9 The Game in Atlanta. “This front office has essentially been directed by Arthur Blank to do what needs to be done. Donate the amount that you must. Finish it up.
“Now, Terry Fontenot, the general manager, isn’t stating that. Raheem Morris, the head coach, isn’t saying that, either. However, that’s what the guys in the league are discussing.
