One of the major dominoes in the quarterback market has fallen with QB Kirk Cousins reportedly set to sign with the Atlanta Falcons on a four-year deal, per Mike Garafolo on X. Today marks the first day of the legal tampering period of free agency, so the contract will not be made official until the start of the new league year on Wednesday.
Prior to the pending addition of Russell Wilson to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the quarterback market was of the highest interest to the team. Cousins has been linked to the Falcons for weeks now, but the Minnesota Vikings were also reportedly in play to try to retain his talents.
