Even though he’s been a captain during each of his five seasons as the Minnesota Vikings quarterback, we haven’t seen a lot of outward leadership from Kirk Cousins.
On Sunday, we saw a different Cousins on the field. He was more confident, seeing the field better and making great decisions. Cousins was even working his progressions better than we have seen in recent memory.
After the game on Sunday, Cousins went up to the owner Zygi Wilf and asked if he could present game balls to head coach Kevin O’Connell and general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and he was all for it.
Kirk Cousins said he approached owner Zygi Wilf to ask if he could present game balls to coach Kevin O'Connell and GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah. Wilf agreed, and Cousins made the presentation in the locker room.
