Kirk Cousins is expected to test the market ahead of free agency in March — and his asking price could leave the Minnesota Vikings with sticker shock.
Pioneer Press columnist Charley Walters wrote on January 29 that Cousins, poised to reach free agency for the first time since 2018, is looking to secure a two-year deal with $90 million guaranteed.
“The buzz now is that it will take $90 million guaranteed for two years, despite that he’s still not yet fully recovered from Achilles surgery in November, to sign free agent QB Kirk Cousins,” Walters wrote. “If that’s the case, he certainly won’t get that from the Vikings.”
A contract worth $45 million a year would hold the largest annual value of Cousins’ career and rank eighth among quarterbacks entering the 2024 offseason.
