Kirk Cousins returns to Minnesota as Falcons face Vikings

Kirk Cousins has a pretty good idea about what to expect when he returns to his old home venue.

Cousins played for six seasons with the Minnesota Vikings before he departed as a free agent in March to sign with the Atlanta Falcons. Now, the former Minnesota fan favorite will wear the opposing colors when the Falcons (6-6) kick off against the Vikings (10-2) on Sunday afternoon in Minneapolis.

Does he think the crowd will be hostile or supportive toward him?

"They're great football fans," Cousins said with a smile. "I would think, as a result, they'll make it as hostile as they can for us.
