Win, lose, or draw, one thing is for certain: Kirk Cousins gets PAID! 💰🤑 🏈:
The Vikings have signed quarterback Kirk Cousins to a one-year, $35 million contract extension, as first announced by his agent Mike McCartney.
New GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and HC Kevin O’Connell have publicly said that Cousins their quarterback in recent weeks, and now they’ve committed to him for the next two years. The deal is fully guaranteed and comes with a no-trade clause. For the Vikings, this move saves roughly $14 million on their 2022 salary cap, nearly getting them under the cap. It also means Cousins is no longer entering a contract year. O’Connell has said that he’s excited to coach Cousins and build an offense for him, and now he gets to do that. The Vikings reportedly received calls from teams interested in Cousins this offseason, but decided to keep him in Minnesota.
By signing him to a one-year extension, the Vikings aren’t making a long-term commitment to Cousins, but they’re still cementing that he’ll be their QB for at least the next two years.
