MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — The Minnesota Vikings activated quarterback Kirk Cousins on Thursday, removing him from the reserve/COVID-19 list.
The move comes a day after head coach Mike Zimmer said that he expected Cousins to be at the team’s training camp in Eagan on Thursday, when the team is scheduled to hold a late-morning news conference.
Also removed from the COVID-19 list Thursday was backup quarterback Nate Stanley. However, backup passer Kellen Mond remains on the list. He has reportedly tested positive for the virus.
The three quarterbacks were placed on the team’s COVID-19 list on Monday, as was wide receiver Myron Mitchell.
