With the Minnesota Vikings staring off 1-4, there have been a lot of questions and speculation about Kirk Cousins’ no-trade clause. On Wednesday afternoon, he was asked about it and gave a very Cousins-like answer.
“You know I am just very focused on the Bears and going 1-0 this week, and anything else is not worth my time or energy or attention.”
What else could you expect from Cousins? Historically, he doesn’t speak much on matters like this. He is there to go to work, do his job and collect a paycheck. The last thing he wants to do is to create waves.
The question remains whether he will waive his no-trade clause if the Vikings ask him to. That would require a team wanting to trade for him, as it takes two to tango.
The rumored team has been the New York Jets ever since Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles tendon in week one. Will they be willing to make the move after Zach Wilson has shown some growth? Only time will tell.
