The Minnesota Vikings lost their preseason game in an 18-17 nail-biter against the visiting Arizona Cardinals.
During the game, the team over at FOX9 got a beautiful shot of quarterback Kirk Cousins and his new handlebar mustache. The look is a significant shift from years past when Cousins was mostly clean-shaven.
The NFL Twitter account took no time putting out an APB for the 35-year-old quarterback.
