Plus the $10 million roster bonus that was on the 2027 cap is now on the books for the Vikings. Cousins deal had a backloaded $10 million that is now on Vikings instead of Raiders.
The Kirk Cousins signing was a master stroke by Raiders GM John Spytek:
The Raiders paid Cousins a total of $650,000
They got:
- 9 games of rock solid QB play
- 6+ months for #1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza to learn the system and be mentored by Cousins
- A 2027 3rd round pick

Same. Would’ve pushed for a 2nd, but still a good deal.

The last time Kirk Cousins suited up for the Vikings was in 2023 against the Packers at Lambeau Field.
He’s now back in Minnesota in 2026, and his first game could come Sunday against Green Bay at Lambeau Field.

Raiders No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza will now take over as the starting QB following Kirk Cousins’ trade to Minnesota.
Las Vegas is 4-5, and Mendoza’s first two career starts will come against the Seahawks and Broncos, two of the NFL’s top defenses.

The Raiders are finalizing a trade to send QB Kirk Cousins to the Vikings, per ESPN and NFLN.
I keep seeing everyone talk about Kirk and Jeanty etc.. I don’t care they put up 38 points and I think they average 27? The problem is so does the defense. The offense is figuring it out the defense needs so much help

He would never pass the physical…..
Kirk Cousins and the Baltimore Ravens? 🤔
If @RealTannenbaum were running the Ravens, he wouldn’t get off the phone until he got Kirk Cousins out of Vegas and brought him to Baltimore.
