Kirk Cousins is one of the final dominos left in the veteran quarterback pool in the 2025 offseason. With Russell Wilson signed and the spots nearly dried up, there are only so many players and so many spots that could open up. Cousins could be one of those names to watch.

It’s the conundrum the Falcons find themselves in this offseason after the team named Michael Penix Jr. their starting quarterback last December, just 14 games into Cousins's four-year, $180 million contract. The Falcons are moving forward with Penix as their starter. Meanwhile, Cousins has expressed his desire for a starting opportunity.

The Falcons remain committed to keeping quarterback Kirk Cousins, unless they can find a deal good for all parties involved.
