Vikings fans may have a reason to remember the 1998 NFC Championship game, as rumors swirl that quarterback Kirk Cousins could be considering a move to the Falcons. While details are scarce, there are strong indications that Cousins is contemplating a move to Atlanta, where his wife’s family resides.
The Falcons have always been a top choice for Cousins, who will become a free agent next week. Despite the Vikings’ apparent desire to retain him, they seem willing to let him walk if the price is not right. Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell has expressed a strong desire to keep Cousins, but it remains to be seen if the rest of the organization shares the same sentiment.
At 35 years old and recovering from a torn Achilles tendon, Cousins’ future with the Vikings is uncertain. The allure of playing for the Falcons, with their strong offensive weapons and weaker division, may be too tempting to resist. The Vikings have a limited window to negotiate exclusively with Cousins before he hits free agency, but it may already be too late if the Falcons have made a compelling offer.
While the Falcons were previously linked to a trade for Justin Fields, it appears that they may have set their sights on Cousins instead. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen where Cousins will ultimately land.
