Kirk Cousins softly plays off speculation, and it’s genius

Kirk Cousins was not considered good enough for a contract last season. How do you expect the man to respond? Right down the middle. The way he’s responding to questions regarding his future, it’s marketing genius.

According to an article NFL.com’s Connor Orr, Cousins said, “I don’t know… I think you have to have an open mind but ultimately it’s not in my hands in the sense that the team is going to make that decision and I’ll react accordingly.”

To bring back Cousins sans a contract means close to $24 million for one year.
