Kirk Cousins is returning to the team with whom he enjoyed his best NFL years, and he has shared his excitement in just five words.
The answer that the Minnesota Vikings have found for their quarterback issues is none other than Kirk Cousins. Between 2018 and 2023, he was the franchise quarterback, earning three Pro Bowl selections during that time. He moved on eventually, signing a big contract with the Atlanta Falcons.

However, Cousins is now back with the NFC North franchise. The quarterback was acquired in a trade from the Las Vegas Raiders in exchange for a 2027 third-round draft pick. There is naturally a lot of attention being paid to this story, but the QB himself has kept it simple.
Kirk Cousins tells Minnesota he will ‘see them soon’ after trade announcement
The team feels like they are simply one decent quarterback away from being considered serious Super Bowl contenders. And while Cousins may be on the older side now, he is certainly a good QB. And as long as he passes the medical test, he will be the man to lead the Vikings once again.
The 38-year-old knows the situation he is walking into, and based on the message he shared on his Instagram, he is more than happy to let his game do the talking rather than just words.

“See you soon, MN! #Skol,” was all the quarterback said in his caption, sharing a picture of him running out in a Vikings uniform. ‘Skol’, of course, is part of the fan chant and the fight song for the franchise, which means Cousins is showcasing his knowledge of the team.
Cousins has put together a solid statistical season so far, throwing for 2,340 yards and 20 touchdowns against eight interceptions in nine games for the Las Vegas Raiders. He is completing 64.1 percent of his passes with a 97.1 passer rating. He might just be the answer for the Vikings.
