Kirk Cousins: My focus right now is on getting healthy

Kirk Cousins’ Football Future is unclear at the moment, but he knows that any hope of returning to life as a quality start quarterback will require him to be top -notch.

Cousins ​​didn’t look like he was in that kind of form after returning from a torn Achilles in 2024, and his diminishing returns during the season led Falcons to bench him as they tried to beat Buccaneers to the NFC South title In the last weeks. They couldn’t pull it off, but moving to the first round pick Michael Penix Jr. means that the path back to the first team is blocked in Atlanta.

During a performance on the NFL Network on Tuesday, Cousins ​​said he prioritizes his health over all discussions about where he will play for the time being.

“I definitely feel like having A lot of good football Left in me, ”Cousins ​​said. “Time will show. It’s still kind of uncertain. We come to march and know much more. But I think the focus for me is really getting healthy. It’s really my focus is that I have to get healthy. I’m not good at Falcons, I’m not good at a team if I’m not doing really well. It really is where my focus has been through January and February now that the season has been held and really takes the whole time I can to make my body feel really good. “

Cousins ​​said he feels that his Achilles is ok, but that his right ankle had trouble and that his right shoulder and elbow were injured in week 10.

COURINS HAVE A GLAUSE ABOUT NON-SHOCK AND IS GUARDED $ 27.5 MILLION FOR NEXT SEASON WITH ACEK 10 MILLION DOLLARS WILL BE GUARYED Early in the new Lig, so moving on from him would do for a significant cap hit . Falcon’s GM Terry Fontenot said he is comfortable with cousins ​​backing Penix, but it’s back to see which way Falcons will actually go when offseason starts.
