The hawks will listen to the commercial offers but have made no promise to the cousins ​​of Kirk

Kirk Cousins ​​wants to go somewhere where he can start.

The Falcons quarter-rear clearly indicated a one-hour telephone conversation with owner Arthur Blank in early March. Cousins ​​expressed the same thing during meetings face to face with coach Raheem Morris and director general Terry Fontenot.

Morris said this week that if a Kirk cousin business was good for both parties, then the Falcons “I would certainly like to see this happen. “Falcons will listen to commercial offers but have made no promise.

“At the end of the day, What’s going on“Said Blank, via Josh Kendall de Theathletic.com.” Perhaps something pre-rôti, draft, post-report, I don’t know, but he understands what our needs are and what we have to do as a franchise.

“I told him that we would be as thoughtful towards him as possible, but we have responsibilities for the franchise. He understood it, but he clearly was clear with regard to his own situation, and I understand that. ”

The Falcons signed cousins ​​at four years old, $ 180 million a year ago to be their starting quarter. Then they drafted Michael Penix in the first round, and now, the Falcons insist that they are going well if Cousins ​​is their rescue quarter in 2025.

“We have already paid for it,” said Blank. “I have never been a type of person at risk.

The cousin contract guaranteed him an additional $ 10 million when he stayed on the list on March 17.

In the end, the Falcons could pay cousins ​​a lot of money for only 14 departures. Penix has become the start of week 16, leaving the future of cousins ​​with the team the only question in the 2025 position.

“One of the things you learn when you experience life is that it is useless to live in the past,” said Blank. “Obviously, when we committed to Kirk and Kirk, the circumstances were extraordinarily different as they are today. No fault. Not of our fault. Sometimes life does not develop as you wish.”
