The Minnesota Vikings have acquired quarterback Kirk Cousins from the Las Vegas Raiders in a trade facilitated at the NFL trade deadline. In exchange for Cousins, the Vikings sent a third-round pick to the Raiders. The trade came after a disastrous Week 9 Monday night loss to the Buffalo Bills, where Minnesota scored just six points in a 17-point defeat.
The Vikings had previously attempted to trade for Cousins on October 23, 2023, but decided to wait until after the Bills game before finalizing the deal. Cousins, who spent six years with the Vikings between 2018 and 2023, will join an impressive receiving corps in Minnesota and could potentially lead the team to a deep playoff run.
