The Minnesota Vikings have reportedly expressed interest in a number of quarterbacks from the 2021 NFL Draft pool of prospects.
Barring any sort of serious injury, Kirk Cousins appears to be set to open the 2021 season as the starting quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings.
Cousins is coming off of one of his best years since entering the NFL and his current contract doesn’t expire until 2023. Some would like the Vikings to select his future replacement in the upcoming 2021 draft, but the team’s need to get back to the playoffs next season seems like something that could stand in the way of them taking a large risk by investing their top draft pick in a rookie quarterback.
