With the Minnesota Vikings putting several days worth of speculation to an end and finally signing Kirk Cousins to a three-year, $84 million contract earlier today, they obviously feel that they’ve answered any questions they might have about the quarterback position for the foreseeable future. Even though the contract that they gave Cousins is huge. . .and fully guaranteed. . .it doesn’t appear as though the deal is going to hinder the Vikings going forward.
The details of the contract were revealed today at the signing, and the contract actually appears to be a bit backloaded.
