Washington's surprise trade agreement for Alex Smith caught everyone off guard, including Kirk Cousins.
In an interview with NFL Network's Andrew Siciliano and James Jones, via NFL.com's Nick Shook, Cousins noted the team didn't reach out to tell him about the deal until the day after it was announced.
"No, the next day they reached out and just kind of explained what happened," he said. "Yeah, in this league I've learned to just expect curveballs and you never really should act surprised to what happens because anything can take place."
