Kirk Cousins found himself trending on Sunday night. But it wasn’t because he was scheduled to start or play during any game today, but because he was returning to Minnesota to play his old team the Vikings, as he rides the bench for his new(er) team. The Atlanta Falcons.

But given Cousins experience and his current contract, many fans believe he’s the best QB in the building.

I hate to admit this, but Kirk Cousins is definitely the best QB in the bldg.
And highest paid.

Kirk Cousins should be starting for both of these teams but is getting paid the most of all QBs in the stadium to sit on the bench 😂
