The Washington Redskins are tied to Kirk Cousins for one more season thanks to the franchise tag, but for the second straight year, the two sides have been unable to agree on a long-term extension. There’s an obvious disconnect between Cousins and the Redskins’ front office, especially with Scot McCloughan out, and it’s led to some serious question marks regarding the team’s future at quarterback.
Jay Gruden, who’s coached Cousins for the past two seasons, isn’t getting involved in the situation. He has no say when it comes to the financial part of the negotiations, so he’s focused on the upcoming season and nothing else.
