We have heard plenty of rumors about the potential future of Washington quarterback Kirk Cousins, but team president Bruce Allen says there have been no trade discussions. When specifically asked if Cousins will be Washington’s quarterback in 2017, he said, "That's why we franchised him, yes.”
Allen is in Phoenix for the owners’ meetings, and he told CSN Mid-Atlantic that he and Cousins have laughed at all the rumors. Allen said he has spoken with Cousins a dozen times this offseason, and Allen is “hopeful and confident” they will be able to get a deal done by July 15.
