Kirk Cousins admitted to singing along to Wicked when he saw it in theaters

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins revealed himself to be one of the folks singing Wicked songs in the theater.

While talking to Atlanta media on Wednesday, Cousins said he saw the new movie during the team’s bye week and couldn’t help but sing the songs in his theater seat since he sang them in his high school choir.

“I was kind of waiting for my wife to nudge me to stop doing that,” Cousins joked about his one-man Wicked singalong. “When Elphaba goes into ‘The Wizard and I,’ it’s hard not to [sing along], and then ‘Defying Gravity,’ it’s hard not to.”

If Cousins can help get the Falcons back to the playoffs for the first time in seven seasons, we bet the folks in Atlanta won’t mind him belting his favorite Wicked songs at the movies all he wants.

After all, he’d be quite the … popular … guy.
