Kirk Cousins shifted from the Minnesota Vikings to the Atlanta Falcons via a huge free-agency contract.
Cousins wore No. 8 throughout his time in Minnesota.
In Atlanta, that number currently belongs to tight end Kyle Pitts.
Were they going to work out a deal for Pitts to give up No. 8?
No.
The Falcons have posted an image with Cousins in his new number: 18.
