THe NFL is looking into potential tampering by the Atlanta Falcons related to the signing of free-agent QB Kirk Cousins, according to sources Thursday, March 14.
Posted: 3/14/2024 3:10 am GMT
Atlanta Falcons QB Kirk Cousins (Achilles) said Wednesday, March 13, that his recovery from an Achilles' rupture is progressing well, and he is "optimistic to be full speed at practice" before the team breaks for summer in a couple of months, and his goal is to retire as a member of the organization.
Huddle Up: Cousins was having an amazing season in Minnesota last fall before his season-ending injury. If he is able to return to 100 percent, Cousins has low-end QB1 fantasy ability in leagues of 12 or more teams.

Impending free agent QB Kirk Cousins (Vikings) agreed to a four-year deal with the Atlanta Falcons, according to sources Monday, March 11. Financial terms of the deal were not immediately disclosed.
Huddle Up: Cousins finds a new home in Atlanta with some intriguing weapons in Drake London, Bijan Robinson and Kyle Pitts. He's still a high-end QB2 in value, but there's a chance he has some spike weeks in 2024.

Minnesota Vikings impending free-agent QB Kirk Cousins will hit the open market and begin speaking to the Atlanta Falcons when the tampering window opens Monday, March 11.
Huddle Up: Cousins is advancing in age and is coming off a torn Achilles, but he has taken a ton of hits and bounced back the last few years. He has still performed, maybe even over expectations. He'll be a midrange QB1 in fantasy wherever he goes, and he may fall in drafts based on the aforementioned worries.

Minnesota Vikings impending free-agent QB Kirk Cousins (Achilles) is likely to "figure out exactly what his market is," according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
Huddle Up: Cousins' current contract automatically voids on March 13, which would accelerate the entirety of his potential cap charge into 2024 if the two sides cannot reach an agreement by then. In other words, Minnesota has less than a week to get something done before it faces the real possibility of suffering a huge hit to next year's cap and losing its starting quarterback. If the two sides cannot finalize the deal before then, there is a good chance a team like the Atlanta Falcons will meet his demands. In either situation, Cousins should be considered a solid fantasy QB2 option at worst.

Minnesota Vikings impending free-agent QB Kirk Cousins is seriously considering moving his family to Atlanta, which would be an indication that he's intending to sign with the Atlanta Falcons, according to sources. His wife, Julie, grew up in nearby Alpharetta, Ga., and her parents still live there.
Huddle Up: Atlanta has young weapons that would be all around him, and it would be an attractive option to pivot to. There is the question about him returning from a torn Achilles at 35, though. Cousins will be a midrange QB1 in fantasy wherever he signs.

Minnesota Vikings impending free-agent QB Kirk Cousins will not take a hometown discount and the team has yet to meet his demands in a new contract, ESPN's Dan Graziano wrote on Sunday, March 3.

The Atlanta Falcons are making the acquisition of Minnesota Vikings impending free-agent QB Kirk Cousins this offseason a priority, according to WSB-TV reporter Zach Klein, who made an appearance on the "Dukes & Bell" radio show on 92.9 The Game. "(Falcons owner) Arthur Blank has basically told his front office staff, 'Do what you got to do, pay what you got to pay, get it done,"' Klein said. "Everybody that I've talked to, agents, other coaches and scouts, guys around the league, that's the feeling and that's what they are hearing. The Falcons are putting all their attention on Cousins."
Huddle Up: Regardless of where the 35-year-old Cousins lands, he will be the clear-cut starter at quarterback and can be viewed as a low-end QB1 or high-end QB2 option in 2024 fantasy leagues.
