For the past couple months since the Minnesota Vikings were eliminated from the playoffs by the New York Giants, many conversations have returned to old faithful: what will the Vikings do with QB Kirk Cousins?
Well, it seems apparent that the future of Cousins in Minnesota may quickly be dwindling before our very eyes. As free agency was set to get underway, the Vikings converted a large chunk of Cousins’ 2023 cap hit into future void years, meaning that not only did the QB not receive an extension to stay with the team, but he also has $28 million in dead money on the books for 2024 if he does not suit up in a Vikings uniform.
