On Monday afternoon, ESPN reporter John Keim wrote about the issues Washington is having with quarterback Kirk Cousins, and the leverage the QB holds over the team. The most interesting note was when Keim said that one source told him the 49ers are the only team Cousins will sign with right now.
It would appear damage control has begun. Bleacher Report NFL columnist Jason Cole tweeted on Tuesday morning that a source told him Cousins would be open to playing for teams other than Washington or the 49ers if that was what happened.
