Former MSU QB Kirk Cousins bouncing back after rough start to NFL season

Former Michigan State star and current Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins had a tough start to his NFL season. Fortunately for the Vikings, Cousins has had a strong two weeks now and looks to have bounced back into the player we have seen glimpses of since his time in East Lansing.

Now infamously, the Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Zach Brown called Cousins the ‘weakest link’ on the Vikings offense. Cousins torched the Eagles for 333 yards and 4 touchdowns, throwing 3 of those touchdowns to Stefon Diggs, who was reportedly frustrated with his role in the offense. Brown was actually released today by the Eagles. Life comes at you fast.

Before this week, Cousins had 306 yards in a win over the New York Giants so it looks like he might be back to stay.
