Kirk Cousins is one of the most experienced quarterbacks currently in the NFL, and the Atlanta Falcons made a strong bet on him just months ago. Despite that, his starting role with the team is not guaranteed, and the franchise might not be opposed to a potential trade—especially if another team is willing to take on his contract.

Teams reaching out to the Atlanta Falcons about the availability of quarterback Kirk Cousins in trade talks have informed the front office their asking price is too high, ESPN reports.

While Atlanta publicly says it's not working hard to move Cousins, ESPN reports that the Falcons privately have had trade discussions with multiple teams, but have asked for a lot in return. Atlanta reportedly has asked interested teams to pay $20 million of the $45 million in guarantees Cousins has left on his contract.
