This offseason, there was speculation that Kirk Cousins could return to Minnesota in his No. 8 jersey. Although it looks like the Vikings are ready to move forward without him, the No. 8 jersey will return to the quarterback room in 2025.
On Friday, the Vikings announcedthe jersey numbers for their offseason additions. Quarterback Sam Howell, acquired on Day 3 of the draft via a pick swap with the Seattle Seahawks, will wear No. 8 this year.
That news doesn't shut the door on a Cousins reunion, as he is still seeking a trade out of Atlanta.
