It might be getting overshadowed by the Atlanta Falcons' front office overhaul, but Kirk Cousins' future in Atlanta is very much up in the air. Despite leading the Falcons to a 5-2 record down the stretch, Cousins' hefty contract situation has the writing on the wall surrounding his Falcons' future.
The 37-year-old was slated to make $57.5 million in both 2026 and 2027, but ESPN's Field Yates reported that Cousins and the Falcons agreed to modify the final two years of his contract, which will set up a massive decision for the new front office once the new league year rolls around this March.
