49ers Are Reportedly Looking to Try and Trade for Kirk Cousins

Kirk Cousins to the 49ers? The NFL Quarterback  carousel continues to turn. After the blockbuster trade this weekend that saw Jared Goff and Matthew Stafford trade places, now we’re learning about another QB that may be on the move. Rumor has it the 49ers are trying to put together a package to acquire Kirk Cousins.

Apparently the 49ers were trying to get Stafford, but once that fell through, they’re now setting their sights on the Minnesota Vikings QB.

#49ers still looking to make a move at QB. Kirk Cousins, I'm told, is a name to keep an eye on. If #Vikings are open to dealing, San Francisco will push hard to acquire him. Ties with Shanahan make this an intriguing potential fit.

Kirk Cousins greatest strength is somehow convincing teams he is a good QB.

After what the Lions got for Matthew Stafford, the Vikings may be wondering what they could flip Kirk Cousins for.https://t.co/8VAv6BGPX0

#49ers are about to give up like 1 2024 3rd rounder less for Kirk than it would take to just go get Deshaun Watson aren’t they?

In Shanny's Mind…

Kirk Cousins > Patrick Mahomes

The 49ers have Jimmy Garoppolo, but clearly aren’t sold on him to stay healthy. He may end up back in New England.

Cousins is good enough to win games, but is he good enough to win the big games?

The NFL offseason is in full swing!
