Everything about the course of the Minnesota Vikings offseason begins with one man — quarterback Kirk Cousins.
Kirk Cousins with NFC Foe Would Really, Really Work
The 35-year-old is tentatively scheduled to hit free agency in seven weeks, and the Vikings’ leadership has hinted since last year its desire to re-sign Cousins for a seventh season, but as always with the incumbent quarterback, money is the sticking point. The next handful of weeks will be used to determine if Minnesota and Cousins’ representation can meet in the middle financially on an extension.
And if Cousins leaves after six years, his favored landing spot, the Atlanta Falcons, really, really makes sense.
