For the most part, former Michigan State quarterback has been a good ambassador for the Spartans over his time as an NFL QB, where he currently plays for the Minnesota Vikings.
However, he made some comments this week about the COVID-19 pandemic that many have deemed extremely controversial.
Cousins appeared on Kyle Brandt’s “10 Questions” podcast this week and shared some of this thoughts on the virus and masks:
“I want to respect what other people’s concerns are. For me personally, just talking no one else can get the virus, what is your concern if you could get it, I would say I’m gonna go about my daily life. If I get it, I’m gonna ride it out. I’m gonna let nature do its course. Survival-of-the-fittest kind of approach. And just say, if it knocks me out, it knocks me out. I’m going to be OK. You know, even if I die. If I die, I die. I kind of have peace about that.”
I’m not going to spend much time critiquing his views about his own life here too much, but it is a little alarming that he doesn’t seem to care if he passes the virus onto his family…
