Minnesota Vikings Seek Veteran QB: Geno Smith, Kirk Cousins in the Mix

The Minnesota Vikings are on the hunt for a seasoned quarterback to bolster their roster ahead of the 2026 offseason. After a disappointing performance from rookie J.J. McCarthy, the team is looking for a reliable backup or even a starter to challenge him. Two names have emerged as potential candidates: Geno Smith from the Las Vegas Raiders and Kirk Cousins from the Atlanta Falcons. Both quarterbacks could become available soon, with Cousins set for release by Atlanta and Smith potentially being traded or released by Las Vegas. Fans and analysts believe this move would be beneficial for the Vikings, as Cousins has prior experience with head coach Kevin OConnell. While Kyler Murray is not in the Vikings plans, either Smith or Cousins could find a fresh start with the teams talented offensive weapons.
