EAGAN, Minn. -- After a whirlwind three months that required Kirk Cousins to move his family across the country, learn a new offense and develop relationships with new coaches and teammates after signing a three-year, $84 million contract in free agency, the Minnesota Vikings quarterback can finally exhale.
All of the changes that Cousins experienced came with the territory -- moving on to the next chapter of his career after six years with the Washington Redskins. That didn't mean the transition would always appear seamless.
Cousins felt the spring offseason was "a bit like drinking through a fire hose," given the amount of new information he had to process and execute in expedited fashion.
