Silver And Black Pride on Kirk Cousins
From the article
In my opinion, Cousins' arm has been dead since he tore his Achilles during his last season in Minnesota (2023)...To me, there was a noticeable and significant difference between the velocity of his and Fernando Mendoza's passes during the preseason.
STACKED’s take
Cousins' arm dead since 2023 Achilles tear; velocity gap vs. Mendoza evident in preseason.
Quarterback's arm strength has been compromised since tearing his Achilles in his final Minnesota season (2023); at 38 years old, the injury's impact on his ability to drive through the ground and generate velocity is significant. The source observed weak arm strength on film before and during a Monday Night Football matchup against the Raiders a couple of years ago, leading to his benching the following week. While Cousins played better in relief of Michael Penix Jr. last year, his arm is 'pretty dead at this point in his career.' Preseason showed a noticeable and significant velocity difference between his passes and Fernando Mendoza's, a gap confirmed by beat reporters during training camp. No additional injury reported; this is age and prior injury compounded.
