LEESBURG -- Washington Redskins president Bruce Allen said negotiations with quarterback Kirk Cousins on a long-term deal likely will resume once free agency subsides.
The Redskins placed the franchise tag on Cousins, but still want to sign him to a multi-year contract. Cousins’ side is OK with him playing under the tag, but obviously any player prefers long-term security.
“As soon as free agency dies down a little bit, I’m sure his agent will engage us again in talks,” Allen said after the Redskins received the Legacy Award from the Loudoun School and Business Partnership on Friday morning.
