Kirk Cousins is a victim of circumstance. His rise to success came at a bitter point in the RG3 era. Cousins was the understudy, with RG3 starring as the hero of the Redskins. That didn’t happen. Their bitterness at dealing with a No.2 that became a No.1 is startling.
I never expected the Redskins to respond to Kirk Cousins the way they have. This is awful. I was driving back to my office listening to ESPN and they brought up a great point: What if this was RG3? What if this was the guy they sold their soul for in the NFL Draft?
