The starting quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings Kirk Cousins ranks 16th on Pro Football Focus‘ top 30 players over the age of 30 list.
It should be no surprise that Cousins not only made the list, but also that he’s the only Vikings on there. You could make a case for Harrison Smith, but coming off of a year where he wasn’t used to the best of his ability, it makes sense why he was left off.
Here is what the author John Kosko said about Cousins.
Cousins turned in his lowest passing grade as a Viking in 2022 (77.7), but that was still a top-10 season at the position as he led his team to the playoffs. Cousins’ 31 big-time throws were a career-high, but so were his 23 turnover-worthy plays.
All in all, Cousins led the Vikings to a 13-4 record in 2022 with arguably his best season in Minnesota. He will look to improve in year two with Kevin O’Connell’s offense.
Also making the list was former Vikings outside linebacker Za’Darius Smith who ranked 19th.
