Kirk Cousins Emerges As Vikings Trade Target
A dud of a trade deadline day figures to provide an explosive finish, as barely two hours remain until this year’s trading endpoint. Many eyes are on the Vikings, who have been connected to acquiring a starting quarterback after seeing Kyler Murray and Carson Wentz struggle this season.
Familiar names are in play, and Kirk Cousins appears the preferred option. Cousins has become a “prime trade candidate” for the Vikings, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports. Cousins, 38, played in Minnesota from 2018-23. The Vikes will trade for a QB before the 3pm CT deadline, Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio adds.
