Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
i watched the entire conference. Yes Kirk could have said more praise to his old team, but people have to remember that he was doing his first press conference as a Viking, so anyone expecting him to go on for a few minutes about how great we (The redskins) are, that's just silly. I do think he was classy with his goodbye tweet about his time in Washington, and thanked the organization.
I thought most of Cousins' answers were handled very well, and he was very politically correct.
One thing i took away that I find noteworthy; Kirk was asked directly to describe what it was like "getting here" (In Minnesota), and he said directly; "It's been a 2 1/2 year process for my agent and I". Whether he means it took 2 1/2 years for him to sign his first LTD as a starter, or if he meant it too 2 1/2 years to get out of Washington, we may never know.
I believe that it was the latter, i think this confirms the theory that some had here that he wanted out following the 2015 season when he was lowballed initially...
