Kirk Cousins Contract Would Make Falcons the NFC South Favorites Amid NFL Rumors

Despite remaining in contact with the Minnesota Vikings, Kirk Cousins is expected to test the free agent market, NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero reported.

The Atlanta Falcons are one team in need of a starting quarterback and according to NFL insider Jordan Shultz, they are a "major contender" to land the talented signal caller.

The move would immediately make the team favorites to win the NFC South in 2024.

The Falcons are a young team brimming with talent. Bijan Robinson is a running back with the potential to be the best in the league and backup Tyler Allgeier has already proven his value to the team, rushing for over 1,000 yards in his rookie season and spelling Robinson to the tune of 683 yards in year two.
