I’m putting my reputation on the line here, boys. This is what you crave.
I became a big shot sports personality in the summer of 15, how could I ever forget. It was Adrian Peterson and if he was going or staying and Ben “Big Dawg” Dogra that launched me into the sport’s stratosphere when I got word before anyone else about APs new deal.
I’m putting it ALL ON THE LINE for you, the little people, one more time.
I’m told Kirk Cousins and the Vikings are VERY close on keeping the 4 time pro bowler in Minnesota.
Here are a few details….
-Kirk has explained to Julie that it’s not that the Vikings don’t appreciate him but the fact they are trying to build a winner here.
-Had no desire to go to a new system and has a big admiration for Head Coach Kevin O’Connell and the Vikings organization.
-Believes there is unfinished business here.
-Conversations between him and Julie about how grateful they are on the money made and this decision was not about that.
-There will be MASSIVE provisions in the contract for playoffs, SB appearance etc. Once again, Cousins betting on himself.
-A lot of talk about this being the path that God has chosen for him etc.
Now, I will tell you that the two sides are still negotiating and are not there yet but it isn’t as big as some might think.
I’ll try to keep you updated this evening but it’s sounding like Cousins will remain a Viking. I also expect if this is going to happen, it will be announced tonight or before FA launches tomorrow at 11am CT.
As always….. Stay Tuned.
