Episode Details

Kirk Cousins, a veteran quarterback, joins the Las Vegas Raiders after a challenging stint in Atlanta. Known for his impressive stats during his six-year tenure with the Minnesota Vikings, Cousins is now set to back up the Raiders top draft pick, Fernando Mendoza. Despite the Vikings interest in a reunion, they opted for Kyler Murray. Cousins career in Minnesota saw him throw for over 23,000 yards, 171 touchdowns, and 55 interceptions. His Achilles injury in 2023 led to a disappointing deal with Atlanta. Now, with the Raiders weak quarterback draft class, Cousins has a real chance to start in 2026, potentially mentoring under Tom Brady in Vegas. This move could be the fresh start Cousins needs after being sidelined in Atlanta and passed over by Minnesota.
