Cousins shines in short, 'smooth' Vikings debut

DENVER -- Kirk Cousins was perfect in his cameo, and then kicked back and watched two former Broncos quarterbacks tear apart their old teammates.

Cousins completed all four of his passes in the Vikings' 42-28 exhibition victory Saturday night, including a 1-yard touchdown strike on a quick slant to Stefon Diggs .

"I think it was a smooth first drive, but it is a small sample size, and the next couple of weeks will be a good test for us," Cousins said.

Diggs called it a good first step.

"He's a good quarterback," Diggs said.
