Jets' hopes of landing Kirk Cousins take hit as QB dominoes start to fall

The New York Jets' pursuit of Kirk Cousins doesn't appear too promising at the moment.

The NFL's quarterback landscape changed overnight, as former Minnesota Vikings starter Case Keenum reportedly agreed to a contract with the Denver Broncos, a member of the Cousins Final Four.

Obviously, the Broncos are out of the Cousins chase. That means one less competitor for the quarterback-hungry Jets, but the bigger story is that the Vikings -- also in the Cousins Four -- must be confident in their ability to land him. Otherwise, why would they let the popular Keenum walk to Denver?
