The Minnesota Vikings are in another quarterback conundrum. Kirk Cousins is entering the last year of his contract with a $36.25 million cap hit, and the Vikings are in a position where they want more flexibility. On the other side, Cousins seems to want a long-term extension that will give him security. What complicates things are the events of the last 48 hours around the league:
- Derek Carr: 4 years/$150 million
- Geno Smith: 3 years/$105 million
- Lamar Jackson: franchise tag
- Daniel Jones: 4years/$160 million
How will these developments impact the Vikings’ negotiations with Cousins and the future of the franchise? We discussed all of that on the latest bonus episode of “The Real Forno Show.”
