Extending Kirk Cousins viewed as one of the worst decisions of 2020

When the 2020 offseason began, the Minnesota Vikings knew they had to figure out ways to create more cap space in order to fill some of the holes on their roster. One of the routes the Vikings took to free up some spending money was to give an extension to Kirk Cousins.

Minnesota extended Cousins’ deal by two more years, keeping him under contract with the team until 2023.

The Vikings have been satisfied with him as their starting quarterback and they clearly view him as their best option under center for the next few seasons.
