Cousins 3.0, he's going to sign the franchise tag

[Chief X_Phackter]

He won't sign a long term deal with the Redskins, this year or next year. He's doing just fine on these one year deals, and has more to gain if he plays the season out on the FT, and then play the game again next year. I'm not real sure his current or past comments really matter; his nature is to be positive and not rock the boat. And everyone else outside of Cousins, his Agent, and the FO who are commenting on the situation is just guessing. It's not getting done, and if I were him, I'd be completely fine with that.

The major incentive the Skins can offer is injury guarantees, and I would not be shocked to see a hefty injury guarantee amount in any deal that gets done.
