Kirk Cousins, Vikings Have Had Contract Talks
2 years agoMinnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins has had contract extension talks with the team. However, discussions haven't been productive, with a deal not expected anytime soon. There were rumblings of a new agreement for the veteran signal-caller, especially since it would open up cap space. But that appears unlikely, so Cousins is on tap to earn north of $36 million (along with a bonus) during the 2022-23 campaign. The 34-year-old finished last season with 4,547 passing yards and 29 touchdowns while completing 65.9% of his throws. He also tossed a career-high 14 interceptions and had one of the lowest quarterback ratings since entering the league in 2012. Nevertheless, with Justin Jefferson on the same roster, Cousins will continue to have a place on fantasy rosters, although managers shouldn't expect consistent production from him.
