Kirk Cousins Expected To Remain With Vikings This Year

one year ago

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins is expected to remain with the team this year and will not look to waive the no-trade clause in his contract, short of changing unforeseen circumstances. The Vikings are 1-4 entering their Week 6 game in Chicago against the Bears, but even if they fall further out of playoff contention, Cousins is expected to stick with the organization in 2023. The 35-year-old could then renegotiate a new deal for the 2024 season. Cousins is the QB4 in overall fantasy points at his position through five games, but his fantasy stock has taken a hit with All-Pro receiver Justin Jefferson (hamstring) on Injured Reserve for the next four games. Still, he's a strong QB1 play this weekend against a porous Bears defense.
