After a rough ending to his first season with the Atlanta Falcons, quarterback Kirk Cousins's future in the NFL is up in the air as the Falcons haven't made it clear if they plan to keep him or not.
Cousins signed a four-year, $180 million contract with the Falcons last offseason, but he ended up being benched at the end of the season for rookie Michael Penix Jr. Atlanta general manager Terry Fontenot has said he could see the team retaining Cousins for a backup quarterback role. But, there's also a strong possibility that the Falcons will cut him.
