EAGAN, Minn. -- Even as they tabled contract discussions this spring with quarterback Kirk Cousins, the Minnesota Vikings left open the possibility that talks could resume at any time. Cousins, however, said Wednesday that a resumption is not likely until after this season.
"I think we'll probably talk about the contract next March," Cousins said on the final day of the Vikings' mandatory minicamp. "Until then, [we'll] just focus on this season and the job to do right now."
That answer solidified the widely-held assumption that Cousins will play out the final year of his contract this season, during which he will earn $30 million.
