Kirk Cousins puts contract onus on ‘decision-makers’
The San Francisco 49ers will be regularly connected to free agent Kirk Cousins between now and the start of March as Kyle Shanahan takes over as head coach. Washington head coach Jay Gruden told the media on Tuesday that he fully anticipates Cousins being around. Jason Cole talked about the team considering trade options, with the 49ers and Cleveland Browns potentially being on the list. And now Kirk Cousins has weighed in, sort of.
The Washington quarterback was asked about potentially returning to Washington in 2017 and beyond, and he said he would love to build things in Washington, but, “we’ll see if the decision-makers let that happen.”
