Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins is expected to show up for mandatory minicamp on Tuesday, June 10. Cousins attended team workouts in April but was not present for voluntary OTAs in May.
Huddle Up: Cousins stands to lose a lot of money by not showing up for mandatory minicamp, so this should not come as a surprise to anyone. While it remains possible that Cousins will remain a backup all season, new starter Michael Penix Jr.'s durability remains a question mark. Additionally, Cousins figures to be the first quarterback that teams will inquire about if their starter gets hurt during the preseason or early part of the regular season.

Updating an earlier report, Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins is expected to remain the backup for the Falcons this season, in the opinion of NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, who notes there's no financial incentive to release Cousins, whose contract contained $100 million in guarantees. Cousins, who Rapoport noted would prefer to be released, did not report for the start of Atlanta's organized team activities (OTAs) on Tuesday, May 27.

Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins is, at the very least, on the Pittsburgh Steelers' radar if Aaron Rodgers ends up not signing with the team, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
Huddle Up: While Cousins was terrible near the end of his time as a starter in Atlanta, it should be noted that he was still in the first year of recovering from an Achilles injury. In Pittsburgh, he would likely be asked to take on more of a caretaker role for a team that has traditionally leaned heavily on the running game and its defense. If Cousins eventually finds his way to the Steelers, he should be viewed as an uninspiring fantasy QB2.

Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins could consider waiving his no-trade clause as early as Friday, April 25, following the completion of the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, according to Underdog's James Palmer. Per Palmer, it seems "more and more likely" that he will hold off making a decision until after Day 2 (Rounds 2 and 3) are completed on Friday.

The Atlanta Falcons are expected to require more than a Day 3 draft pick in any potential trade involving QB Kirk Cousins, in the opinion of CBSSports.com's Jonathan Jones.

Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins could be an option for the Pittsburgh Steelers if they are not able to sign free-agent QB Aaron Rodgers (Jets), in the opinion of SI.com's Albert Breer.
Huddle Up: The Steelers are still waiting for a decision from Rodgers, so Cousins could be a backup plan if things do not work out. Whoever starters for the Steelers next season should be considered a No. 2 fantasy quarterback.

Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins could end up getting traded to the Cleveland Browns at some point this offseason, according to sources via The Athletic's Dianna Russini.
Huddle Up: It is mildly surprising this possibility is not getting discussed more often. The Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers are about the only teams left that desperately need a quarterback and the Steelers appear focused on Aaron Rodgers. Among the reasons why Cleveland makes sense for Cousins is that he played in Minnesota under then-offensive Kevin Stefanski. From Atlanta's end, the Falcons likely have no desire to keep Cousins' big contract on their payroll any longer than they have to and would undoubtedly love to acquire more draft capital.
