Five Takeaways: Kirk Cousins' Packers Week Presser

Here’s five takeaways from Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins' media session with reporters on Wednesday, Nov. 16, 2016, at the Inova Sports Performance Center at Redskins Park in Loudoun County, Va.

1. Vernon Davis has been quite the surprise at tight end.

Through nine games, the tight end has 26 receptions for 382 yards, nearly matching his total from all of last season (395). Davis and Reed have become a dangerous combination, too, in recent weeks, dual threats that have given Cousins more opportunities down the field.

Cousins admitted that he wasn’t sure what he would get from Davis at this point in the Maryland product’s career when the team initially signed him, but, like his head coach said on Wednesday, he’s been pleasantly surprised with his production.
