Kirk Cousins is the straw that stirs this free agent class’s drink. Here’s an interesting wrinkle for the 35-year-old, four-time Pro Bowler: The two presumed primary players in his sweepstakes are led by the coordinators from the 2021 Super Bowl–winning Los Angeles Rams.
In one corner, you have Sean McVay’s offensive coordinator from that year, and Cousins’s play-caller of the past two seasons: Minnesota Vikings coach Kevin O’Connell. In the other, you have the former defensive coordinator, who was also in Washington for Cousins’s first three NFL seasons: Atlanta Falcons coach Raheem Morris. And if there’s one lesson anyone can take from that Rams title season, it’d probably be to never be afraid to take a big swing on a quarterback.
So how big a swing will these two take on Cousins?
