Atlanta Falcons Do not expect Kirk Cousins during voluntary training This offseason, and they are open to exchanging the quarter-arre despite the previous indications they planned to keep the veteran demo as a backup. Do not rely on the cousins that land with the Browns of Cleveland, a popularly speculated landing point, via trade. Browns are not interested in absorbing the current cousins contract, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, which is one of the reasons why the quarterrier prefers to be released.
“Kirk asks to stand out,” D. Orlando Ledbetter reported on Cleveland 92.3 The Fan, explaining that Falcons should eat the majority of what remains on the contract of $ 180 million in cousins to facilitate any type of business. This, of course, would be the approval by cousins awaiting a move to Cleveland, since the veteran has a clause without exchange in his agreement.
Be that as it may, the other teams consider the cousin contract as “non -trapable”, according to Ledbetter. Therefore, unless the quarterrier returns its agreement and / or restores tens of millions to Atlanta, no trade is likely. Even then, some NFL leaders think that the type of wage ceiling manipulation could be a violation of collective negotiation of the League, according to Ledbetter.
With the cousins and the Falcons would have disagreed behind closed doors, because the club has surprisingly spent a first round choice on the quarter-back Michael Penix Jr. Last season, the only feasible paths are: 1.) The cousins remaining in Atlanta as the highest demand of the NFL, so that he can explore Freyy to assert on the potential starting point.

Head coach Raheem Morris said this week that Falcons “do not retain (cousins)” if such an opportunity “arises”. Only time will tell us if it means that the team is willing to release, not only in commerce, the veteran.
