The San Francisco 49ers could sensationally move for Kirk Cousins to address their complicated quarterback situation due to the history between head coach Kyle Shanahan and the Minnesota Vikings star.
Shanahan has remained a fan of Cousins since he entered the NFL as a fourth-round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft. The 34-year-old is a fairly divisive quarterback as he has built a reputation for being productive in the regular season but faltering under the bright lights of prime time games and the postseason.
This was a reality for Cousins in 2022 as his Vikings won the NFC North for the first time since 2017. They tallied a 13-4 record before losing in Minnesota to the New York Giants in the Wild Card round of the playoffs - and despite the 49ers reaching the NFC Championship Game, it appears the 49ers could be interested in moving for Cousins.
