What would a contract extension for Kirk Cousins look like? Tyler Forness explores all the possibilities and data behind it

The Minnesota Vikings are going to face quite an interesting decision this year. It’s one that we’ve talked about before but it’s never been more of a reality than it currently is.

Will the Vikings move on from quarterback Kirk Cousins?

After signing a three-year, $84 million contract in free agency in March of 2018, the Vikings have given him a two-year, $66 million extension in March of 2020 and a one-year, $35 million extension in March of 2022. By that trend, the Vikings would be giving him an extension of some sort in March of 2024.
