Kyle Brandt dubs Kirk Cousins as tier 2 NFC QB

Good Morning Football is the NFL Network’s version of a morning show and it spurs a lot of discussion. On Thursday’s episode, co-host Kyle Brandt ranked the NFC quarterbacks via tiers and put Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins in tier two with Dak Prescott and Matthew Stafford.

The only quarterback ranked in tier one is Jalen Hurts and for good reason. He just signed a record contract with the Eagles for five years, $255 million. Yes, the record only held for a few days, but it still counts!

Cousins being in that next tier in the NFC feels right, especially being grouped with Dak Prescott and Matthew Stafford. He arguably had his best year while being slightly worse in volume stats. He completed 65.9% of his passes for 4,547 yards, 29 touchdowns and 14 interceptions.

Is Cousins being ranked in tier two fair or foul? Give your answers in the poll below!
