Word on the street is that contract talks between the Washington brass and Kirk Cousins are improving. But they’ll have to pick up the pace if they want that sentiment to amount to anything in 2017. The July 15th deadline looms one month from now, and if no agreement is met before then, there may never be one at all.
There’s speculation that the Redskins are waiting for the Derek Carr situation to unfold before they decide Cousins’ comparative value. There’s no questioning that Cousins has the potential to be one of the best in the league.
