Veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins will be heading to Atlanta, which was a potential landing spot for Justin Field
Longtime Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins is headed to the Falcons, according to multiple reports.
The Falcons have had quarterback problems over the last few seasons, with Desmond Ridder and Taylor Heinicke sharing starting duties in 2023 for the 7-10 team.
Rather than running it back with one of them or trading for Bears quarterback Justin Fields, the Falcons are opting to pay a proven veteran starter.
