No quarterback truly wants to get hit. But after missing nearly a year due to injury and sitting out the entire preseason, Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins won’t hate getting his jersey dirty Sunday. At least one time.
Speaking with reporters Wednesday, Cousins said he’s looking forward to getting that first hit out of the way.
“Yeah, you do. In a sick way, you do,” Cousins said when asked if he’s looking forward to getting hit against the Steelers. “I’ll probably tell the first guy that hits me, ‘thank you.’ Within reason. Get that taste of blood in your mouth a little bit.
