EAGAN, Minn. -- Kirk Cousins is part of the Minnesota Vikings' plans for the 2022 season. At least for right now.
Speaking at his introductory news conference on Thursday, four days after helping lead the Los Angeles Rams to a win in Super Bowl LVI, new Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell said he anticipates Cousins will continue to be the quarterback in Minnesota despite questions surrounding his future.
"Well, I know he's under contract and I'm excited to coach him," O'Connell said. "We've already started thinking about how we're going to build those systems for him and our other quarterbacks and really the tremendous skill group that we have, our guys up front.
