For the foreseeable future, Kirk Cousins is the Washington Redskins starting quarterback. And so far this season, he’s played very well. Through four games, he has a healthy 66% completion rate, over 1,000 yards, and a stellar 7:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio.
Coming off his best game of the year, Cousins looks to only keep improving, and eventually earn either a long-term deal or a third consecutive franchise tag in 2018. The Redskins can afford it. And that might be the route they take.
Regardless of the cautious optimism surrounding the team’s quarterback situation, there’s plenty to like at each level of the Redskins’ quarterback hierarchy.
