Redskins' tweet on Kirk Cousins' San Antonio Spurs love irks Wizards

Talk about a rivalry between the hometown basketball and football teams.

Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins said at a press conference early in training camp last month that he hoped the Redskins would “be the San Antonio Spurs of the NFL.”

On Thursday, the Redskins tweeted a photo of Cousins holding a No. 8 Spurs jersey with his last name on the back, saying “One step closer to being the San Antonio Spurs of the @NFL. (Thanks @spurs!).”
