Kirk Cousins told to snub NFL free agency and re-sign with Minnesota Vikings
Kirk Cousins is set to become a free agent this offseason and his former Washington teammate Robert Griffin III believes the quarterback should re-sign with the Minnesota Vikings
kirk Cousins has been told he should stay with the Minnesota Vikings amid uncertainty surrounding his future.
Cousins has shown top form while playing for the Vikings, with the team described as the best Super Bowl contender among those needing a strong quarterback.
Cousins performed brilliantly in eight games during the 2023 season, clocking up 2,331 yards and throwing 18 touchdowns with only five interceptions. It has been mooted as career-best form for him.
However, on top of suffering a late-season Achilles injury, the 35-year-old has become a free agent. Rumours are flying that several teams may court Cousins, but the Vikings might also pinch pennies as standout receiver Justin Jefferson’s rookie contract winds down.
As crunch time for Cousins approaches, former Washington teammate Robert Griffin III says Minnesota is his best shot for a coveted Super Bowl ring.
Griffin made his feelings known loud and clear in a social media video, saying: Free agency is right around the corner and I know exactly where Kirk Cousins is supposed to be. The best place for Kirko Chains is where he’s been for the last six years: Minnesota.
Yes, there are a lot of teams that need a quarterback but few teams that need a QB are closer to winning a Super Bowl than the Minnesota Vikings. And make sure you heard me right: I didn’t say the Minnesota Vikings are close to winning the Super Bowl, I just said few teams that need a quarterback are closer to winning one than the Vikings.
