Kirk Cousins took to the airwaves this week to explain his drop-off at the tail end of the Atlanta Falcons season.

Graziano noted Cousins' roster bonus being due on March 17 along with $27.5 million in salary already being guaranteed for 2025. He then explained why a trade makes the most sense, rather than a release:

“Spielman’s presence in the front office is sure to spark Kirk Cousins speculation,” ESPN’s Rich Cimini wrote on February 10. “As the Minnesota Vikings’ GM, Spielman signed Cousins to a huge free agent deal in 2018. Cousins, who enjoyed his most productive years in Minnesota, is likely to be cut or traded by the Atlanta Falcons in the coming weeks.

According to ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler, the Atlanta Falcons' decision on quarterback Kirk Cousins is coming soon.

The Tennessee Titans desperately need to upgrade their quarterback, and Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins could be a short-term answer.

It sounds like it's only a matter of time before quarterback Kirk Cousins is no longer a member of the Atlanta Falcons.

Kirk Cousins and the Atlanta Falcons will likely formally part ways within the next month, and one AFC team has been mentioned as a possible landing spot.
