The New York Jets will be in the market for a quarterback this offseason and could bring in a talent with credibility. The Jets have decided that they will be moving on from Aaron Rodgers after two tumultuous seasons with the team. Their overhauled front office has a connection to one of the top quarterbacks who could be on the market this offseason, making them an ideal landing spot for the seasoned veteran.
ESPN’s Rich Cimini suggested that Cousins may not have reason to return to the Atlanta Falcons, and could be an ideal pickup for New York, saying:
“Kirk Cousins could shake free from the Atlanta Falcons, who have committed to Michael Penix Jr. after the making the switch last season. Cousins is an interesting possibility because his former Vikings GM, Rick Spielman, is now the Jets’ senior football adviser. He’d be cost-effective. The Falcons are on the hook for his $27.5 million base salary (guaranteed), so the Jets would have to pay only the veterans minimum, roughly $1.2 million,” Cimini wrote
