<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kirk-cousins">Kirk Cousins</a> is the most significant quarterback available in the NFL free agency. Despite being 35 years old and in the midst of recovering from an Achilles injury, any franchise could become a <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> favorite if they sign the veteran.



The list of names is very enticing heading into the 2024 season, with Russell Wilson, Baker Mayfield, Ryan Tannehill, and Gardner Minshew being great possibilities for any team. However, Cousins seems to be the best option.



A few weeks ago, Kirk Cousins surprised the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> when he declared to CBS that he would sign with the team that hired <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bill-belichick">Bill Belichick</a>. However, no one signed the legendary mentor of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady">Tom Brady</a> as head coach, so that scenario is ruled out.

<h2>What will be the next team of Kirk Cousins?</h2>



According to a report from Mike Florio, Kirk Cousins could be open to move with his family to Atlanta and play for the Falcons. However, many people on social media didn’t believe the information and that produced a very controversial answer by the insider.


 

 


“To the folks who try to dismiss our reports by saying we have no sources or whatever, you realize we had like 50 guests on our show last week from Indy, right? You realize pretty much everyone in the league reads PFT, right? You realize I’ve been doing this 23 years, right???”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20240215#BUS#105236"></div>


Then, during a special appearance in the Pat McAfee Show, Florio confirmed again the possibility and also acknowledged one of his sources was Falcons star tight end, Kyle Pitts. 



“You got things coming back to me that I confirm, from people who would know, that there’s an effort to look for schools for the kids, a house for the family. Up to and including, I haven’t confirmed this part yet, but it’s just one of those little things that makes sense, talking to the guy who currently wears No. 8, Kyle Pitts, about getting No. 8.”

Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season is still months away from us but the rumor mill is already in full swing. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/baker-mayfield">Baker Mayfield</a> is one of the most interesting quarterbacks heading into the open market, which is why the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-england-patriots">New England Patriots</a> are reportedly interested in his services.



It makes sense, since the Foxborough franchise has struggled at quarterback since <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tom-brady">Tom Brady</a> left in 2020 and Mayfield did a great job replacing the 7x Super Bowl at the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/tampa-bay-buccaneers">Tampa Bay Buccaneers</a> last year. Besides, Mayfield knows newly-appointed Patriots’ offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt from his time with the Browns.



“Alex Van Pelt was the offensive coordinator in Cleveland with Mayfield in 2020 and 2021. Given those connections, it’s not surprising the Patriots would be interested in signing Mayfield, who will be a free agent after a Pro Bowl season in Tampa,” Graff wrote.



However, it looks like the interest is not mutual. According to the report, the former first-overall pick would prefer other teams before considering the Patriots. Those options might be to stay in Tampa, join the Minnesota Vikings or sign with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/atlanta-falcons">Atlanta Falcons</a>.

“But it doesn’t appear that interest is mutual. Early indications are that Mayfield plans to consider other options — likely the Buccaneers, Vikings and Falcons — before the Patriots could become serious contenders for his services,” Graff wrote. “He could command more than $30 million per year, according to a league source. In short, despite the Patriots’ connections to Mayfield, New England is not expected to be at the top of his wish list.”


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20240304#BUS#109065"></div>


<h2>Patriots, Mayfield may not be the ideal match for each other this offseason</h2>



While Mayfield would be an interesting target for any team looking for a quarterback considering how great he played for the Bucs in 2023, the Patriots have another path to get a signal-caller for the long term.



With the third overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, New England can start from scratch with a young QB to try and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-rumors-patriots-leave-mac-jones-future-in-new-england-up-in-the-air-20240222-BUS-106828.html">leave behind its struggles with Mac Jones</a> and Bailey Zappe in the last couple of years.



In that scenario, it would make more sense for the Patriots to sign a veteran quarterback who can mentor the rookie and even start the season before handing the baton to the newcomer.



Mayfield is seeking a lucrative contract after proving his worth last year, and the Bucs are expected to do whatever it takes to continue with him under center. Therefore, the most likely path for the Pats this offseason is drafting a first-round QB while signing an experienced QB to help him adjust to the NFL. But only time will tell us.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/justin-jefferson" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Justin Jefferson</a> is widely regarded as the best player that the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Minnesota Vikings</a> have. However, his future is uncertain, as he has placed a crucial condition to continue playing for the NFC North team.



The 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season was not the best for the Vikings. Despite their strong performance in the 2022 campaign, a series of changes, departures, and injuries prevented the team from reaching the 2024 playoffs.



One of those injuries was the one of Justin Jefferson. The wide receiver was only able to play in 10 games, and there are strong rumors suggesting that his time with the Vikings might be over soon.



<h2>Justin Jefferson places one crucial condition to sign an extension with the Vikings</h2>



The Minnesota Vikings are facing a huge problem. Justin Jefferson is entering his final year of contract, and all the team’s fans are wondering if the front office will offer him a contract extension or trade him.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20240110#BUS#97050"></div>


The future appears uncertain for Jefferson. According to rumors, the Vikings could be interested in parting ways with him, but they would only consider a trade if it includes a first-round pick in exchange for the wideout.



However, there’s another option: offering him a contract extension. Jefferson has said multiple times that he’s comfortable in Minnesota, but now he has a crucial condition to consider before signing a new deal with the Vikings.



According to NFL Media, Jefferson will wait until the Vikings determine who will be the team’s quarterback in the future. The wide receiver desires an elite player throwing passes to him, as it would help him to showcase his skills.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240214_BUS_104642_Kirk-Cousins-of-the-Vikings-during-the-lost-in-Week-2-1024x572_451a36ce.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=572" alt="Kirk Cousins of the Vikings during the lost in Week 2" class="wp-image-64837" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Kirk-Cousins-of-the-Vikings-during-the-lost-in-Week-2-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Kirk-Cousins-of-the-Vikings-during-the-lost-in-Week-2-300x168.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Kirk-Cousins-of-the-Vikings-during-the-lost-in-Week-2-768x429.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Kirk-Cousins-of-the-Vikings-during-the-lost-in-Week-2.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Kirk Cousins of the Vikings during the lost in Week 2</figcaption></figure>



During Jefferson’s tenure in Minnesota, Kirk Cousins has served as the starting quarterback. While Cousins is set to become a free agent, reports suggest that he’s willing to accept a pay cut to remain with the team, which could facilitate the extension of the wideout’s contract.



<h2>Which teams could be interested in trading for Justin Jefferson?</h2>



Justin Jefferson is undoubtedly one of the premier wide receivers in the NFL today. Despite his injury last year, he has consistently surpassed 1,000 receiving yards in each of his four seasons, and the Vikings are fully aware of his value.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20240101#BUS#95368"></div>


According to rumors, if Minnesota is willing to trade Jefferson, they would only consider it for an early first-round pick. The Bears, Commanders, Patriots, and Cardinals hold the first four selections, and they all have an immediate need for a top wide receiver.

NFL News: Justin Jefferson has one key condition to continue with the Vikings

The 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season is on the books and many are already looking forward to the beginning of the playoffs. But those who didn’t make the postseason have other things to worry about. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings">Minnesota Vikings</a>, for instance, have a decision to make about <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kirk-cousins">Kirk Cousins</a>.



2023 was the final year in the veteran quarterback’s contract, which is why many wonder what’s next both for the franchise and Cousins. Vikings general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah recently addressed this situation in a press conference, claiming his intention is to try and reach an agreement with the 35-year-old.



“I’ve been pretty consistent with that. Kirk the player is somebody that, as we saw what he does to this team, I thought we were playing really good football before he got injured. It’s the most important position in sports,” Adofo-Mensah said, via Jeff Wald of Fox 9. “It ultimately always comes down to can you find an agreement that works for both sides and all those things, but as a player it’s certainly my intention to have him back here.”



<h2>Lack of playoff success, a stain in Cousins’ tenure</h2>



Signed on a three-year, fully guaranteed $84m contract in 2018, Cousins has been the Vikings franchise quarterback for six years now. While he definitely gave reasons to own the job, he has been unable to take the team to a deep playoff run so far.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240110_BUS_97050_Cousins-1024x576_e73c3987.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Injured quarterback Kirk Cousins #8 of the Minnesota Vikings is seen on the sideline prior to a game against the Green Bay Packers at U.S. Bank Stadium on December 31, 2023 in Minneapolis, Minnesota." class="wp-image-97076" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/28083854/Cousins-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/28083854/Cousins-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/28083854/Cousins-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/28083854/Cousins-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/01/28083854/Cousins.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Injured quarterback Kirk Cousins #8 of the Minnesota Vikings is seen on the sideline prior to a game against the Green Bay Packers at U.S. Bank Stadium on December 31, 2023 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.</figcaption></figure>



In fact, the Vikings made just two playoff appearances since they brought Cousins in. In 2019, Minnesota beat the New Orleans Saints in the Wild Card round before losing to the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round. After two seasons with a losing record, the Vikings won the NFC North but were shocked by the New York Giants in the Wild Card.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231101#BUS#82274"></div>


<h2>Vikings suffered without Cousins</h2>



Cousins has often been criticized for failing to take the Vikings further, but this season may have proven how weak they are without him. The veteran signal-caller suffered a season-ending injury in Week 8, and nothing has been the same for the team since then.



Cousins was having a great season until then, with 2,331 passing yards and 18 touchdowns, though the Vikings were off to a 3-4 start. From then on, the team lacked consistency at quarterback, with Jaren Hall, Joshua Dobbs, and Nick Mullens all starting for the Vikings during 2023.



At 35, Cousins is clearly not getting any younger, and his recent injury may be concerning as well. But the talent is definitely there. The Vikings may have realized how important having a QB of his caliber can be, so unless Cousins’ demands are through the roof, it looks like there’s time for another chapter together.

NFL Rumors: Vikings GM confirms if they want to bring back Kirk Cousins

Jayden Reed was a key player during the first three quarters against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings">Minnesota Vikings</a>, he scored two touchdowns as a rookie. The season was on track for Reed but things might not end well after he failed to return to the Week 17 game.



The 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay Packers</a> season has been a story of both familiar struggles and surprising resilience. Gone is the legendary arm of Aaron Rodgers, traded in the offseason, leaving behind a team in transition under the untested leadership of Jordan Love.



Yet, with two games left in the regular season, the Packers cling to a flickering playoff hope, fueled by a mix of seasoned veterans and exciting rookies like wide receiver Jayden Reed. However, the Packers found redemption on the defensive side of the ball. Led by the shutdown corner Jaire Alexander and the relentless pass rush of Rashan Gary.



<h2>Jayden Reed’s absence</h2>



According to multiple sources including the Green Bay Packers (@packers), WR Jayden Reed was ruled out of the Week 17 game due to a chest injury. He was playing his 15th game with the Packers in the 2023 season.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="555" height="272" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240101_BUS_95382_image-31_87a82bf2.webp&amp;width=555&amp;height=272" alt="" class="wp-image-95398" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/12/image-31.png 555w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/12/image-31-300x147.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 555px) 100vw, 555px"></figure></figure>



So far Reed had two top games during the current season, against the Falcons he scored two touchdowns as well as against the Minnesota Vikings. He was drafted during the 2023 draft as a second round 50th overall.



Reed has defied expectations, emerging as Love’s go-to target. His electrifying speed and acrobatic catches have injected a much-needed spark into the Packers’ passing attack. Reed’s big plays, like his diving touchdown catch against the Vikings, have ignited the Lambeau faithful and given the team a fighting chance.



Packers reach the playoffs or not, the 2023 season has been a valuable learning experience. It has shown that Green Bay possesses the talent and the fight to succeed in the post-Rodgers era. And with young players like Jayden Reed stepping up, the future of the Pack looks brighter than ever.

Packers Fans Left Puzzled: Where Did Jayden Reed Vanish in Week 17?

NFL: Why Jayden Reed didn't return to the Packers vs Vikings Week 17 game?

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings">Minnesota Vikings</a> began Sunday Night Football against the Green Bay Packers with a shirtless Kirk Cousins ​​doing something never seen before, a horn blast that injected fire into the stadium minutes before the start of the Week 17 game.



The 2023 NFL season for the Minnesota Vikings has been a tale of two halves. Starting off with a disappointing 0-3 record, the Skoldiers seemed destined for mediocrity. However, under the guidance of head coach Kevin O’Connell, they clawed their way back into contention, even briefly holding the top spot in the NFC North.



Cousins’ impact on the Vikings cannot be overstated. His leadership, accuracy, and clutch performances were instrumental in the team’s turnaround. With him throwing to All-Pro wide receiver Justin Jefferson, the Vikings boasted one of the league’s most potent offenses. His absence has left a gaping hole under center, with Nick Mullens, Josh Dobbs and Jaren Hall struggling to fill the void.



<h2>Cousins’ shirtless video</h2>



Before starting Sunday Night Football against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay Packers</a>, Kirk Cousins ​​blasted the stadium horn as a sign that there is still hope to reach the postseason. They have a 7-8 record and are in the hunt for a Wild Card.

</div></figure>



Before this game the Vikings lost two games, one against the Cincinnati Bengals 24-27 (OT), and another against the Detroit Lions at home 24-30. They haven’t won since December 10, that time against the Las Vegas Raiders.



The defense, despite the addition of defensive guru Brian Flores, has also shown cracks without the offensive firepower to mask their mistakes. Opponents are now routinely putting up points on the Vikings, something that rarely happened with Cousins orchestrating long, clock-chewing drives.



The 2023 season is a harsh reminder of the importance of one player in a team sport. While the Vikings have talented players on both sides of the ball, their reliance on Cousins was perhaps too great. The injury has exposed weaknesses in the roster and coaching staff, forcing them to re-evaluate their approach to the offseason.



<h2>What is Kirk Cousins’ contract with the Vikings?</h2>



As of today, December 31, 2023, Kirk Cousins’ contract with the Vikings has expired. He was playing on a one-year, $35 million extension signed in March 2022. This means he will be a free agent in 2024 and able to negotiate with any team for the next season.



<h2>How many Super Bowls have the Vikings won?</h2>



The Minnesota Vikings have not yet won a Super Bowl. They have appeared in four Super Bowls throughout their history: Super Bowl IV (1970) Lost to the Kansas City Chiefs, Super Bowl VIII (1974) Lost to the Miami Dolphins, Super Bowl IX (1975) Lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers, Super Bowl XI (1977) Lost to the Oakland Raiders.

On Week 14, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/las-vegas-raiders" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Las Vegas Raiders</a> suffered an embarrassing loss to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Minnesota Vikings</a>. Now, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/davante-adams" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Davante Adams</a> has talked about what happened, and he’s definitely not happy at all with their performance.



It has not been a great year for the Raiders. Despite high expectations, the AFC West team has fallen short, making their playoff chances nearly impossible and their fans are obviously very disappointed about it.



One of the primary players who has struggled this year is Davante Adams. The wide receiver hasn’t reached the same level as his debut season in Las Vegas, and frustration seems to be mounting for the former Packers player.



<h2>Davante Adams talks about the tough 3-0 loss vs. Vikings</h2>



A 3-0 score in the NFL is a rarity, but it did occur. In Week 14, the Vikings defeated the Raiders in a game that will be remembered, although not in the most positive light.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231105#BUS#83179"></div>


The Raiders have been severely judged throughout the entire season, and this game didn’t help them so much to change those critics. It seems like the team is not finding the right path, and frustration is rising in the locker room.



Davante Adams, star wide receiver of the team, has addressed this disappointing game. The wideout said that he wants to be remembered forever, but not for these type of performances.



“You want to be a part of history,” Adams said earlier this week,&nbsp;via ESPN. “But never that type. I mean, it’s embarrassing, too. Not that that’s the main thing that drives it, but you walk off that field and you’ve got a lot of fans that pay their money to come to see you play and you go up and put up a goose egg. It almost looked worse that they only scored three [points], too.

“You’ve seen plenty of teams win, 20, 22-0, whatever, but when the other team wins by three and they only score three, it just looks horrible. So, hopefully we don’t make any more history like that on this side.”



<h2>What will happen with Davante Adams in 2024?</h2>



Currently, uncertainty looms over various aspects concerning the Raiders, notably Davante Adams’ future. The wide receiver has faced challenges in his second season with Las Vegas, leading to doubts about his continuity with the team.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231119#BUS#86604"></div>


Rumors suggest the Raiders might consider parting ways with Adams next year, but only if an enticing offer emerges. The team acknowledges his exceptional skills as a wide receiver and is uninterested in letting him go for a lesser value.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/justin-jefferson" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Justin Jefferson</a> is probably the best player that the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Minnesota Vikings</a> have nowadays. Unfortunately, the NFC North team has received some worrying news regarding his return for Week 12 of the 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season.



Over the last three seasons, Justin Jefferson has been the standout player in the Vikings’ offense, consistently surpassing 1,400 yards each campaign. However, his performance in 2023 has fallen short of his own expectations.



At the start of the season, Jefferson endured a hamstring injury that led to his placement on the injury reserve list on October 11th. Unfortunately, signs suggest that his return to play may not be imminent.



<h2>Report: Vikings won’t activate Justin Jefferson for Week 12</h2>



The Minnesota Vikings faced significant setbacks this year due to injuries. Initially, Justin Jefferson endured a hamstring injury, followed by Kirk Cousins’ season-ending torn Achilles tendon. Nevertheless, there were expectations for the wide receiver’s return toward the close of the regular season.



However, Jefferson’s return is still uncertain. Even though he has been practicing with the team, it seems like he won’t be activated to play in the team’s Week 12 game against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-bears" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chicago Bears</a>.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231110#BUS#84241"></div>


According to The Athletic, the Vikings “are not going to push their best player to get back on the field” despite their playoff contention. As favorites in the upcoming game against Chicago, the team believes they can afford to rest the wide receiver for this match.



Indeed, this decision appears logical. Following the Bears game, the Vikings have a bye week, providing Jefferson with two weeks to fully rest and recuperate. The aim is for him to be in optimal condition to return for Week 14 against the Raiders.



<h2>Who is the WR2 of the Vikings?</h2>



With Jefferson likely sidelined for the upcoming game, Jordan Addison is poised to step into the WR1 role. While Justin is absent, Addison will fill in; however, once Jefferson returns, he’ll reassume his position. Nevertheless, the rookie has showcased an impressive debut season.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231110#BUS#84050"></div>


Addison was drafted 23rd overall in the 2023 NFL Draft. In 11 games, the former USC player has recorded 48 receptions for 647 yards and seven touchdowns, showcasing a promising start to his NFL career.

During the 2023 trade deadline, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/arizona-cardinals" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Arizona Cardinals</a> decided to send Josh Dobbs to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Minnesota Vikings</a>. Now, the quarterback has revealed more information about his exit and explained how HC Jonathan Gannon lied to his face.



The 2023 NFL season has been rough for the Cardinals. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kyler-murray" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kyler Murray</a>, their star quarterback, suffered a torn ACL last year and has been in the process of recovery. In his absence, Arizona turned to a new quarterback, and Josh Dobbs proved to be the right answer for the team.



Despite the Cardinals maintaining a disappointing 1-8 record, Josh Dobbs delivered commendable performances for the team. However, the front office made a surprising move by trading him, a decision that caught him off guard.



<h2>Josh Dobbs shares surprising moment of his trade to the Vikings</h2>



The Cardinals have been one of the worst teams this 2023 season. The team has undergone several changes, and it doesn’t seem like they will be able to turn things around for the second half of the campaign.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231110#BUS#84050"></div>


With Kyler Murray out for the initial games, Arizona had to find a suitable replacement. Earlier this year, the team acquired Josh Dobbs, but he was surprisingly traded to the Vikings a few days ago.



The Cardinals intend for Kyler Murray to resume the role of the starter for the remainder of the 2023 season. With Murray’s return, it was expected that Josh Dobbs would assume the backup role, but the trade caught him by surprise.



Talking to FOX9, Dobbs recounted the moment he became aware of the trade. Following their 31-24 loss to the Ravens, Jonathan Gannon, the team’s head coach, informed him that he would start against the Browns the following week.



However, the next day, the coach had a change of plan and informed Dobbs that rookie Clayton Tune would start over him, but that he would stay in Arizona. A few hours later, Dobbs found himself joining the Minnesota Vikings.



On Tuesday morning, Dobb’s agent told him that he had two options: the Vikings or the Browns. With Kirk Cousins out for the rest of the season, Minnesota needed an experienced quarterback to lead the offense, and Josh was the right answer.

Fortunately for him, he quickly assumed the role of the team’s starting quarterback. Dobbs steered the Vikings to victory against the Atlanta Falcons, suggesting that the trade was a beneficial move for his career.



<h2>What will the Arizona Cardinals do with Kyler Murray?</h2>



It remains uncertain what Arizona’s next move will be with Kyler Murray. The quarterback is making a comeback from a torn ACL, and the team plans for him to play the rest of the season, despite their slim playoff chances.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231107#BUS#83430"></div>


Rumors suggest that the Cardinals want to give Murray some playing time to showcase his skills before considering a trade. However, his hefty salary is a significant obstacle that could impede their plans to part ways with him in the near future.

As we approach Week 10 of the 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season, numerous players are aiming to showcase their performance. After Week 9, here are the five leading players in sacks, and unsurprisingly, T.J. Watt ranks among the top five.



The 2023 season hasnot been the best for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/pittsburgh-steelers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pittsburgh Steelers</a>. Even though they have a remarkable defense led by T.J. Watt, the offense has really struggled this year, and their time is running out.



Despite the team’s struggles, they are currently 5-3 and with high hopes of advancing to the playoffs. Their defense has done an incredible job, with T.J. Watt once again as the main star of the AFC North franchise.



<h2>T.J. Watt is among the top five players with the most sacks after Week 9</h2>



We are already in the second half of the 2023 regular season, with all 32 teams striving for a strong finish to secure a playoff spot or, at the very least, avoid a disappointing end to the campaign.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231026#BUS#80426"></div>


During the entire season, several players try their best to lead their squads to success. Of course, defenses play a very important part for each team, and there are some players that are currently living a great moment.



After Week 9 of the 2023 season, there are five players with more than nine sacks. Danielle Hunter of the Vikings leads the list with 10, followed by Raiders’ Maxx Crosby (9.5), Steelers’ T.J. Watt (9.5), Browns’ Myles Garrett (9.5), and Chargers’ Khalil Mack (9).



It’s worth noting that among the teams mentioned, only the Raiders and the Chargers currently do not have a positive record. They are grappling with significant challenges, and it appears that even the stellar performances of their defenses are not sufficient to secure victories.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20231110_BUS_84050_tjwatt-1024x576.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="TJ Watt of the Pittsburgh Steelers during the 2023 NFL season" class="wp-image-74810" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/tjwatt-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/tjwatt-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/tjwatt-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/tjwatt-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/10/tjwatt.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>TJ Watt of the Pittsburgh Steelers during the 2023 NFL season</figcaption></figure>



Surprisingly, Nick Bosa, the star player of the San Francisco 49ers, doesn’t appear on this list. The defensive end has only recorded three sacks this year, a disappointing number compared to the 18.5 he had last season.



<h2>What is T.J. Watt’s best season in terms of sacks?</h2>



T.J. Watt is undoubtedly one of the best defensive players in the entire league. He gleaned invaluable lessons from his older brother J.J., a future Hall of Famer. The former Texans player imparted wisdom to the Steelers linebacker, teaching him the intricacies of evading rivals and reaching the quarterback with finesse.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231021#BUS#78442"></div>


T.J. is currently in his seventh season in the NFL. His most prolific year in terms of sacks was 2021, where he notched an impressive 22.5 sacks. As of Week 9 of the 2023 season, the linebacker has accumulated a total of 87 sacks over his career.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Minnesota Vikings</a> are trying to stay competitive in the NFC North. Fortunately for them, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/justin-jefferson" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Justin Jefferson</a> could return very soon from his injury, but the team will lose a key player for the rest of the 2023 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season.



Recent times have not been easy for the Vikings. Even though last season they were one of the best squads in the entire NFL, they were surprised in the Wild Card round by the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-york-giants" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">New York Giants</a>, which was a huge surprise for everybody.



Unfortunately, their bad luck continues. In the 2023 season, they have had a lot of injured players, including Justin Jefferson. The wide receiver is set to return soon, but another key member of the offense might miss the rest of the campaign.



<h2>Justin Jefferson could return soon, but the Vikings lose another offensive player</h2>



The Vikings’ 2023 season has been challenging, and they’re now looking to secure a playoff spot, possibly through a Wild Card. They are no longer the favorites in the NFC North, but they are trying to stay competitive to advance to the next round.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20230915#BUS#63035"></div>


Unfortunately, injuries have changed their plans for the current season. First, they lost Justin Jefferson due to a hamstring injury, and then Kirk Cousins suffered a torn ACL that ended his year.



Now, the star wide receiver is ready to return. According to reports, Jefferson is set to start practicing with the team, but it is uncertain if he will be activated to play in Week 10 against the New Orleans Saints.



Even though Jefferson’s return might not be this week, it is a huge update regarding his injury. However, Minnesota is now set to lose another key offensive player, and it would be for the rest of the year.



NFL Insider Ian Rapoport informed that Cam Akers has suffered a torn ACL and will be out for the remainder of the season. The running back arrived earlier this year to Minnesota from the Los Angeles Rams, and he was poised to be a key player for the team’s offense.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20231107_BUS_83430_Cam-Akers-Los-Angeles-Rams-NFL-2022-1024x572.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=572" alt="Cam Akers will miss the remainder of the 2023 NFL season due to a torn ACL" class="wp-image-64489" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Cam-Akers-Los-Angeles-Rams-NFL-2022-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Cam-Akers-Los-Angeles-Rams-NFL-2022-300x168.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Cam-Akers-Los-Angeles-Rams-NFL-2022-768x429.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/Cam-Akers-Los-Angeles-Rams-NFL-2022.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Cam Akers will miss the remainder of the 2023 NFL season due to a torn ACL</figcaption></figure>



The Vikings signed Akers as the RB2 behind Alexander Mattison, who was promoted to RB1 after Dalvin Cook’s release. Now, Ty Chandler is poised to fill the vacant position and complement Mattison in the backfield.



<h2>Will the Minnesota Vikings make it to the playoffs?</h2>



As of today, the Minnesota Vikings would be in the playoffs as the 7th seed in the NFC. They currently hold a 5-4 record and, even though it is not what they expected, advancing would be crucial for them this year after suffering several setbacks.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231011#BUS#74571"></div>


The upcoming games for the Vikings will be vital for their hopes. This week, they will face the Saints at home, and then they will visit Colorado to play the Denver Broncos in Week 11.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kirk-cousins" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Kirk Cousins</a> was making the most of — arguably — the most crucial season of his career. Already 35 years old and with his physical prime behind him, the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/washington-commanders" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Washington Commanders</a> QB was playing for another contract, most likely the last one of his career.



Cousins rose to the occasion. He was leading the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> with 18 touchdown passes while completing 69% of his passes and throwing well over 2,000 yards. Despite his team’s struggles, he was posting MVP-caliber numbers.



But now that he’s suffered a season-ending Achilles injury and won’t be able to play for at least nine months, there are plenty of questions regarding his future, not just with the organization but also in the league as a whole.



That’s why <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Minnesota Vikings</a> HC Kevin O’Connell wanted to make it loud and clear that the team is still counting on him. They wanted to bring him back in free agency, and this injury didn’t change their plans.

<h2>Vikings Want Cousins Back Next Season</h2>



“Kirk Cousins is going to be healthy again,” O’Connell told the media, per NBC Sports. “I know he’s going to be a free agent after this season, but Kirk knows how I feel about him, and that will be something, you know, that hopefully will work itself out. You guys know how I feel about Kirk. Kirk knows how I feel about Kirk. I think he was playing as well as anybody in the National Football League.”



Cousins announced on Twitter that he had undergone surgery to repair his Achilles, and he was in great spirits and looking forward to making his return. Of course, it’s going to be a major challenge for a player his age.



Even so, a return to the Vikings seems quite likely. He refused to waive his no-trade clause this season, vowing to lead the team back from the bottom, even after Justin Jefferson fell with an injury and they let most of their star players go in the offseason.



<h2>Does It Make Sense For Minnesota?</h2>



From a pragmatic standpoint, holding onto Cousins might not be the wisest decision by the Vikings. That’s, of course, unless Cousins takes a significant pay cut from his current contract.

Cousins was making $35 million a season, and the Vikings drew plenty of mockery and criticism for paying top-dollar on a QB with well-documented struggles when the lights are the brightest. Still, he was playing like a top-five MVP this season, and he’s a much better QB than most in the league.



Every team needs veterans and leaders, and Cousins has grown to be a fan and locker room favorite and an icon of the Vikings organization. They’re not ready to compete at the highest level right now, but they could still be in the mix for a playoff spot with Cousins there.

The Vikings have made moves to shed salary and big contracts off their books, and spending big bucks on Cousins would go against that m.o. But if both parties can agree on a reasonable deal, then by all means, they should bring him back.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kirk-cousins">Kirk Cousins</a> and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/minnesota-vikings">Minnesota Vikings</a> secured a significant 24-10 victory over the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/green-bay-packers">Green Bay Packers</a>, but the triumph came at a very high cost for Kevin O’Connell’s team.



With less than ten minutes left in the game, the star quarterback suffered an Achilles injury and he will miss the rest of the season as the Vikings confirmed the information on Monday. “Kirk Cousins underwent an MRI this morning at Twin Cities Orthopedics that confirmed an Achilles tendon tear. The timeline and details of his upcoming surgery will be determined this week. The team will continue to provide updates.”



This is a severe blow for the Vikings, as they were making a big comeback in the 2023 season after starting with a 0-3 record. However, they defeated the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/san-francisco-49ers">San Francisco 49ers</a> last Monday Night and now Green Bay, bringing their record to 4-4.



Moreover, Minnesota have not yet played a single game against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/detroit-lions">Detroit Lions</a>, so winning the NFC North was still a real possibility. Nevertheless, Kirk Cousins’ injury changes all the plans.

<h2>How long will Kirk Cousins be out?</h2>



An Achilles injury means that Kirk Cousins is out for the remainder of the 2023 season with Minnesota. Head coach Kevin O’Connell admitted that it is a very challenging situation for the team.







“Every single player in our locker room is thinking about our leader and our guy. I’m just so proud of him. Proud of how he’s played all season long. Whatever is the case, if we don’t have him for one snap or for the duration of our season, that will not change. The level that Kirk Cousins played this year and ultimately what he meant to me and our organization.”

<h2>Who will replace Kirk Cousins with the Vikings? </h2>



After Kirk Cousins’ injury, rookie Jaren Hall finished the game for the Vikings. However, as for the remainder of the season, Kevin O’Connell has not yet made a final decision.



During the NFL Trade Deadline, in a very surprising move, the Vikings acquired Josh Dobbs from the Arizona Cardinals and he could be the starting quarterback in the near future. 



However, Hall will get the call next Sunday against the Falcons. It’s important to remember that veteran Nick Mullens is currently on injured reserve due to a back issue.

The season has demonstrated some remarkable passing offenses, led by standout quarterbacks. These players are crucial in determining a team’s overall success, but even more when assessing the passing game exclusively. Surprisingly, some of these high-performing offenses don’t necessarily have widely recognized star quarterbacks.



Leading the pack are the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/miami-dolphins">Miami Dolphins</a>, who have emerged as the undisputed leaders in the passing game. They command the league in total offense, averaging an impressive 462.3 yards per game. This season, they have exploded with a healthy Tua Tagovailoa leading the way and utilizing speedy wide receivers.



The Dolphins currently stand atop the passing charts, averaging 300 passing yards per game, making them the only team to reach this milestone after seven matchups. Their most impressive performance came in week 1 against the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-chargers">Chargers</a>, where they passed for an astonishing 466 yards.



<h2>Less Stellar Quarterbacks Have Led Great Passing Offenses</h2>



Moving on to the next team, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Kansas City Chiefs</a> boast the second-best passing offense entering week 8, with an average of 285.4 passing yards per game, guided by the talented <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/patrick-mahomes">Patrick Mahomes</a>.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#20231027#BUS#80479"></div>


In the third spot, we find a team led by a quarterback who perhaps doesn’t receive the credit he deserves. The Minnesota Vikings rank highly, averaging 280 passing yards per game, thanks to a great version of Kirk Cousins.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20231028_BUS_81053_kirkcousins-1024x576.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-68815" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/kirkcousins-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/kirkcousins-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/kirkcousins-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/kirkcousins-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/09/kirkcousins.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Cousins</figcaption></figure>



The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/buffalo-bills">Buffalo Bills</a> have improved after their Thursday Night Football victory, but before week 8 commenced, the fourth spot belonged to a team that doesn’t rely on a star player. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/detroit-lions">Detroit Lions</a> reaffirmed their candidacy led by Jared Goff, averaging 258.6 passing yards per game.


<div class="wp_fsn_poll" id="653c7a67f2b571abd7e46700" data-title="Should the Vikings continue with Cousins after this season?" data-options="2"></div>


As for the fifth position in this ranking, the most surprising presence are the Houston Texans. They have exceeded expectations with their passing game led by rookie quarterback CJ Stroud, averaging 258.5 passing yards per game.
