STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Cousins' familiarity with Kubiak's system and preseason efficiency boost Raiders' credibility.

Cousins will begin 2026 as the Raiders' starter and is buying the franchise credibility in NFL Power Rankings despite being 38 years old. He played in new head coach Klint Kubiak's system during his 2021 time with the Minnesota Vikings and should be solid behind a revamped offensive line featuring three-time Pro Bowl center Tyler Linderbaum. In preseason, all three drives Cousins led ended in points (one touchdown, two field goals), demonstrating the offense functioned more smoothly and efficiently with him behind center compared to alternatives.
