Vikings Were Probably Changing QBs This Week No Matter What

Jeffrey Becker-Imagn Images via Reuters Connect The 6-2 Minnesota Vikings are heading to Lambeau Field this weekend with a different quarterback picture than they had a week ago. Kirk Cousins was back at TCO Performance Center on Wednesday and met with reporters for the first time since his return. He will practice this afternoon. Minnesota acquired Cousins from the Las Vegas Raiders on Tuesday for a 2027 third-round pick, just ahead of the trade deadline. The 38-year-old started all nine games for the Raiders, completing 64.1% of his passes for 2,340 yards, 20 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Kevin O Connell hasn t named a starter for Sunday yet, citing the short turnaround after Monday night, but everyone expects it to be Kirk Cousins. He did say he s hopeful Carson Wentz can get to a place where he can be the No. 2 behind Kirk but that may have just been lip service too.
